Hey there, Greek Easter wouldn’t feel complete without a plate of freshly baked Greek Koulourakia. Those beautifully twisted, golden cookies fill the kitchen with the scent of butter, vanilla, and lemon or orange zest. These Easy Greek Easter Cookies (Koulourakia) are a treat and a tradition passed down through […]
Hellooooo, There’s something about rustic potato dishes that feels universal. Every country has its own version, every family. These Rustic Bacon Potatoes fall into that category. They’re simple, hearty, and full of flavor, the kind of dish that disappears from the table long before you expect it to. Here’s […]
Hello, my friends, Today I want to talk to you about something simple, bold, and deeply Greek: Authentic Greek Olive Paste. Have you ever tried Greek Olive Paste before? If you haven’t, then you’re absolutely in the right place. 🙂 For me, Olives are my go-to thing, and so Greek […]
Hello there, Some dishes define a cuisine, and then there are dishes that define a culture. Greek Horta (Boiled Greens) belongs to the second category. If you grew up in a Greek home, you already know the ritual: someone comes back from the market with a giant bag of greens, […]

Hey there, Well… we had a shift in the weather. One minute it was 22 degrees, full of sunshine, and we thought spring had officially arrived, then we were back down to 13 degrees, with a few more very cold days ahead. Classic March mood swings. And honestly, when the […]

Hello everyone, Here’s a nice twist on the delicious Italian lasagna recipe we all know and love. Instead of the usual ricotta-and-meat sauce, this Greek spinach-feta lasagna brings a Mediterranean vibe to your table.

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.
