Beets with Greek Yogurt & Walnuts
Sweet spring beets and Greek yogurt are a great match.
Pumpkin Soup w/ Yogurt and Honey
I can’t get enough of pumpkins in the Fall! The sweetness of this all-American vegetable goes amazingly well with Greek yogurt, Greek honey, Greek olive oil, and Greek kefi! There are a surprising number of pumpkin dishes, sweet and savory, in Greek cooking. You’ll find great single varietal Greek regional honeys on my online store […]
Tabouleh with Walnuts, Yogurt, and Herbs
Tabouleh with walnuts, yogurt and herbs is a greek salad recipe that can double as a main-course, for Meatless Mondays and more! Skip the yogurt, and you’ve got a totally vegan dish, too!

Greek Yogurt, Smoked Salmon Canapés
Salmon isn’t exactly a fish that swims anywhere near the Mediterranean or Aegean, but it’s a fish that Greeks have embraced, both fresh and smoked.

Greek Yogurt, Feta and Blue Cheese Spread
The first time I ever tasted the combination of feta, yogurt and blue cheese was many moons ago, at the first conference of the Oldways Preservation and Exchange Trust, which was held in Porto Carras, in northern Greece. I am not exactly reinventing the wheel here, just providing an easy, savory dip that you can […]
