Greek Fish Soup Avgolemono

Greek Fish Soup Avgolemono by John Spottiswood

The Greeks supposedly invented fish stew and there are many versions of the dish. This version, which I adapted from a recipe in the Frugal Gourmet's Three Ancient Cuisines (a great book), is really phenomenal. We served this during a holiday party with greek salad and spanakopita. Friends of mine who have made regular chicken…

Quick and Tasty Greek Cauliflower

Quick and Tasty Greek Cauliflower by Salad Foodie

There are times I've put the bulk of time preparing a middle east main dish and just need a quick side of vegetables. When cauliflower is on hand, I get the wok out and prepare this Greek flavored dish. I have tried my own mixtures of Greek seasonings (there's clone recipes out there) but when the commercial seasoning's handy, why not…

Greek Beef Stew by John Spottiswood

This is a delicious ethnic variation on classic beef stew. I think the cinnamon gives it a unique and delicious flavor. Adults and kids we have served this to both loved it. I adapted this from Mark Bittman's How to Cook Everything.

Avegolemono

Avegolemono by Denise Sherin

Greek Lemon Chicken Soup. This is a wonderful soup if you love lemon flavor. It's a creamy, rich, acidic soup that our family loves. Use fresh lemon only for the lemon juice, this is not a place for bottled lemon. This recipe calls for yolks only use the egg whites to make a meringue for another dish. I usually double or triple…

Spanakopita Dip

Spanakopita Dip by Denise Sherin

So yummy! Great for parties and get togethers. Original recipe is posted here but I leave out the dill because I am not a big fan of dill. Serve with fresh pita bread, toasted pita chips or your favorite dippers breads, crackers or veggies.

Hot Feta and Artichoke Dip

Hot Feta and Artichoke Dip by misty

One of my favorite recipes, which I've tweaked to my own preferences. For instance, the original recipe calls for pimentos, but I find them redundent as they add nothing to the flavor and little to the appearence. Since they're spendy anyway, I skip them altogether or replace them with finely diced kalamata olives to add to the Greek…

Mediterranean Nachos (Greek Nachos)

Mediterranean Nachos (Greek Nachos) by Denise Sherin

Yummy Greek flavors in nacho form. Instead of sour cream you could use some tzatziki sauce or slice some raw baby spinach leaves. You can also use a flavored feta cheese if you like. To make a heartier dish you can add some shredded chicken or tuna to the tomato mixture.

Tzatziki

Tzatziki by Chef Smith

Tzatziki is traditionally served as an appetizer and can be left on the table as an accompaniment to foods throughout the meal. The key to great tzatziki is the thick creamy texture that allows it to be eaten alone, as a dip, as a spread, and as a condiment.
