This Baked Shrimp with Feta & Herbs will quickly become a favorite. I promise. Oh my gosh the savory flavors…..shrimp bathing in lemon, saffron, garlic, fresh herbs, olive oil, bursting tomatoes and feta. You will want to soak up all that goodness with a hunk (or two) of crusty bread!

Have you had Roasted Greek Potatoes? The kind that cook in the most delicious lemony garlicky broth! I absolutely adore them and wanted to recreate a version to go with our Greek Chicken Burgers. These Greek Style Potato Wedges have all the beautiful flavors of the classic recipe but are crispy like steak fries.

With summer in full swing, it was time to recreate one of my most favorite Lemony Thyme comfort food recipes. We turned our Greek Chicken Meatloaf into Greek Chicken Burgers. They have all the fresh bright flavors that Greek food brings – lemon, fresh oregano, spinach, feta, aaahhhhh. They are super moist, easy to make and reheat beautifully.

I am a self proclaimed lover of all meatloaves and meatballs. I can’t recall a meat-loaf combination that I didn’t love. I’m rather proud of our Greek Meatloaf recipe. We use ground chicken, which on it’s own is fairly bland. No worries. Here’s how we bring full blown flavor to this dish. Continue reading »

There was ‘something’ about this Roasted Tomatoes with Shrimp & Feta that grabbed my attention from the moment I saw it. Which was two days ago, somewhere between 3:30 and 4:00 am, while lying in bed surfing Pinterest on my phone. This wide awake in the middle of the night thing has become a bit of a habit. I’ve been told it’s the age, for now I call it my inspirational ‘me’ time. Continue reading »

It’s crazy to admit that this is the first time I have made a Greek Salad. I’ve loved every one I’ve ever enjoyed at a restaurant. For me it’s the combination of fresh ingredients with big bold flavor personalities, that somehow get along really well. No competitiveness here. I like it!! Continue reading »

A couple years ago, just before the Christmas Holiday season began, I sat down on my living room rug with literally years of issues of Martha Stewart Living magazine scattered around me. I began to bookmark recipes (and decorating ideas) I wanted to try. It is our family tradition that Christmas Eve dinner is comprised of finger foods….some annual favorites, but also a chance for us to experience new recipes. I’m sure I turned down page corners on at least 100 recipes that year, and one of the few that actually made the cut was Pomegranate, Zucchini, and Avocado Salsa. Continue reading »
