As you can understand all this period has been quite hectic for me. Is it my imagination or sometimes the whole universe conspires so as to just drain you completely of your stamina by throwing so many things to be done in your way that simply consume all your time? Well, this happens to me...

Quick Meals Part 3: Balsamic Chicken Drumettes
My son is a very picky child. He could eat pasta Bolognese for ever. He does not appreciate my culinary endeavors whatsoever. Every time I make something new, extraordinary and tasty, he just takes his tongue out with disgust. One of the very few, very few I repeat meals he loved from the very first...
Quick Meals Part 2: Risotto with Porcini & Morels
I had a teacher, her name is Laura. She taught me Italian. Then from my teacher became my friend. In the end, she was still teaching me Italian, but she refused to take any money. I know her since I was in my 20s that is more than 20 years. She introduced me to the...
Quick Meals Part 1: Mushroom Soup
My husband had a terrible cold the other day. I wanted to do something hearty, warm and comfortable to make him feel better. Did I mention quick? I guess I didn’t. Sorry about that, so I wanted something hearty, warm, comfortable, quick and easy. Now that’s more like it. From the title as you can understand...
Polynesian Pork Tenderloin and the First Greek Bloggers’ Camp

Chicken Marbella and a Visit

We started following each other’s blog just like we all do. From a comment she left once, I realized that she would visit Greece. So, after...
Chicken Teriyaki
One of the dishes I enjoy when I go to a Japanese restaurant is Chicken Teriyaki. I just love the sweet and sour flavor of the dish. I have a recipe of this dish, but I thought I should try a new one. I searched the internet and I found many variations of the dish....
Chicken Enchiladas
I love Mexican food. I always enjoy a good meal at a Mexican restaurant here in Athens. Nevertheless, I do not want my Mexican to be very spicy. My stomach cannot bear the heat. So, I like my meal spicy but not hot. This means that I do not use any jalapenos in my cooking...
Biftekia (Greek Burgers)
I know American burgers have all the fame. I know that when someone speaks about burgers his mind goes to US. This is kind of a staple for the country. Something like croissant for French or Moussaka for Greeks or pasta for Italians. I know all that, but it is always good to approach things...
Peas in Tomato Sauce (Arakas Laderos)
This is the third dish of the Greek intervention between my culinary discoveries around the world. All three recipes are dishes we make very often at home and they are tested and true. This one is my son’s favorite and I am very happy for it. You can accompany it with a large piece of...
