Chicken Souvlaki
Chicken Souvlaki is a classic Greek dish consisting of marinated grilled meat that is served with vegetables, creamy Tzatziki sauce, and pita bread. It is a low carb, low in fat and very fresh.

Greek Lemon Rice with Chickpeas
Greek Lemon Rice with Chickpeas is an amazing one-pot dish! It is full of great Mediterranean flavors and is packed with so many herbs and veggies. You’ll think you’re somewhere warm and sunny when eating this dish 🙂 The recipe can be found here. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Make sure you have a large ovenproof skillet to use. You will start by heating ingredients on the stove and will eventually move the skillet into the oven, so you want to make sure you are using something rated for oven use. I used a large cast iron skillet, but a Dutch Oven would also work well. Prep all of your ingredients. Chop the onion, mince the garlic, drain and rinse the chickpeas, chop the sun-dried tomatoes, chop the dill, slice the lemon, slice the olives, and slice the tomatoes. Whew! I think that covers it all! Set all the … Continue reading

Greek Orzo Stuffed Peppers
Stuffed Peppers are a favorite at my house. There are so many possibilities for stuffed peppers so you can really cater the filling to meet any dietary need. Our recent craving has been for Greek Orzo Stuffed Peppers. They are quick to make, fairly simple to assemble, vegetarian / vegan, healthy, and tasty 🙂 You can make this dish more colorful by using a combination of green, orange, red, or yellow bell peppers. I’m partial to red bell peppers for no particular reason so that is what I choose to use. I typically serve these as a main dish, but they could easily be a side dish if served with other items. Look for medium to large bell peppers because they are easier to stuff and hold more ingredients. The recipe can be found here. Start by preheating the oven to 400 degrees. Cut each bell pepper in half, length … Continue reading

Naan Flatbreads
We have been obsessed with flatbreads lately, specifically Naan flatbreads. Naan is a leavened, oven-baked bread that is moist and tender. And makes amazing flatbreads 🙂 One reason we love to make flatbreads is they are quick and easy, can be customized to any flavor preference, and taste great. You simply buy a package of Naan bread, choose your toppings, bake, and enjoy. The possibilities are endless! I have a few of our favorite recipes to share with you. Buffalo Chicken Naan Flatbread If you or your family likes spicy food, you’ll love this pizza. It has the perfect amount of spice that is cut with celery chunks. You can obviously make this as light or as spicy as you want by adding more hot sauce. We usually make our own individual pizzas because Andrew likes his much spicier than I do. Then the never-ending debate of Blue Cheese vs Ranch dressing starts…. but you can serve with … Continue reading
