Voula’s Greek Potatoes My family and I went to my friend's house for a BBQ last summer and her mother made THE most amazing Greek Potatoes. Now I must say I have never (well, really freaking close - with the help of THIS wonderful lady) been able to master Greek Potatoes.

Greek Chicken Here I present a recipe for traditional Greek Chicken that's grilled after marinating in lemon juice and tons of fresh garlic, herbs and spices :) In high school one of the electives I chose was cooking or Food Nutrition or whatever it was called... it was many, many, many moons ago 🤣 In this course we had to work in groups and ...
Greek Rice
Greek Rice Here I present my recipe for the glorious, Greek Rice.

I got zucchini and eggplant in my veggie order ...

I’d go on about how my mother would boil it until it was smushy and how it gave off the funkiest odour when she cooked it but it would upset her, so I’ll skip that part. What I will say is roasted cauliflower coated in the marinade from my ...
