I’m so glad you’re here. I’m the creator of Foodzesty, a Greek food blog filled with easy, flavorful recipes that bring the warmth of a Mediterranean kitchen straight to yours.I'm a Greek home cook, a podcaster, an English tutor to students around the world, and yes... I have also studied Law (which means I can argue why feta belongs in everything). But these days, you’re more likely to find me in the kitchen usually with a spoon in one hand and one of my two basset hounds stealing crumbs behind me.
