    Eat Like A Greek Recipes

    Here you'll find my favorite Greek recipes for just about any occasion. A few are savory pies, like the one with pastourma & kasseri cheese. Some are traditional family recipes like chickpea & lemon soup.

    I love cooking with seasonal ingredients, lots of fresh herbs and always Greek extra virgin olive oil.  Lots of my dishes include Greek cheeses like feta & Cretan gruyere. Cheese is abundant in my recipes and it is indeed true that every household in Greece has fresh feta cheese in their fridge.

    Greek family meals are always served with the famous feta cheese as a side and lots of crusty freshly-baked bread from the local bakery. Greeks eat lots of vegetables as a main dish, always cooked in extra virgin olive oil. They rarely use butter, it is mostly used in desserts and certain savory pies.

    Go ahead and browse, the perfect, most delicious recipe is just minutes away!
