Baklava Ice Cream
Here is an end of summer treat that is sure to be a hit! We took two of our favorite desserts, baklava and ice cream, and combined them (no ice cream machine needed). What we got is a rich, smooth, delicious and refreshing treat! A little goes a long way with this ice cream, so you don’t need a lot. You can stay health and diet conscious and still indulge a little.

Eggplant Tomato & Onion Saute with Lentils
Our neighbor’s garden had a great season and they generously shared with us for this recipe! Since we had the fresh eggplants and tomatoes from their garden, as well as onions, capers, and lentils on hand, we decided to make a delicious and healthy saute! It’s quite an easy (and did we mention healthy) recipe and a good way to use up the last of garden’s summer produce. You’ll love it!

Spanakopita Spinach Pie
Here is our favorite, easy to make spanakopita (spinach pie) recipe Here is our favorite, easy to make spanakopita (spinach pie) recipe that was taught to Joanna by one of her favorite people, Lisa, who has been making this recipe for years, per the request of anyone that’s tasted it. Being Greek we almost always have phyllo dough and feta on hand. Feta is easy to find these days but if you can’t find phyllo, you can use store bought pie dough. The greatest thing about Lisa’s spinach pie? She makes it with love! Make this with love and we’re sure you and your family will truly enjoy it!

Greek Yogurt Pancakes
Using Greek yogurt anywhere and everywhere isn’t really a new concept for us, we’ve been doing it for as long as we can remember. But in a casual conversation the other day, we mentioned our super easy pancake recipe using Greek yogurt and the response was so enthusiastic that we figured maybe we should just post it for all. We love these pancakes and make them all the time. We can put our guarantee that you will love them too!

Basic Vinaigrette
We were lucky to grow up surrounded by great cooks in our family and neighbors and friends. Our mom Maria was one such great cook. One of the many things she was known for were her salads because honestly, she made the best salads! And while there were several factors involved, her quick go to dressing is what made her salads really stand out!
