Since coming home from Greece, I've been making several of the dishes we ate there.
Greek had delicious breads, so I have been making fresh bread every few days to serve warm with dinner or have delicious toast at breakfast. We haven't had to buy store bought bread, and we don't miss it. Fresh bread is delicious!
On Sundays, I've been roasting a whole chicken and lemon potatoes and serving these with a fresh Greek salad made with Corinthian olive oil we brought home. Delicious! (And of course, I save the chicken bones and scraps to make broth.)
We picked up fresh eggplant, squash, and tomatoes from the farmer's market, so I made briam (roasted vegetables) to go with grilled Greek chicken tenderloins.
I used leftover briam for breakfast, eating a fried egg with a soft yolk on top of the saucy vegetables with toast (from my homemade bread toasted to sop up all the yummy briam sauce and egg yolk.) Delicious!
Today, I made a lemon chicken and potato soup using leftover broth saved from the lemon potatoes mentioned above. I served it with warm, fresh bread. Delicious!
