Stuffed Eggplants Papoutsakia
It was always a special treat for us when our Cretan mom would make “papoutsakia” which translates into “small shoes”. We imagine their size, shape and color contributed to this cute little nickname. This dish is so delicious and juicy and will hit any craving you have for a fresh Greek / vegetable / light meat meal you may have! It has some similar flavors and ingredients to a traditional moussaka dish so if you’re a fan of that, you will love this!

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!

Greek Yogurt Lemon Cake
Joanna was looking at recipes for a Lemon cake. She loves Lemon cake (Lemon Loaf, Lemon Poppy muffins…you get the picture, she’s a lemon fan). She came across a few that she liked. Most had buttermilk or milk in the recipe so she thought why not replace it with Greek yogurt! Well the results were fantastic!
