in the mood for mediterranean.

good morning chickadees. my weekend was taken over by kleenex, sneezing and sleep...not fun. i missed out on some fun plans but one bright spot was a super fresh Mediterranean lunch- a pita pocket inspired by this recipe. my version was a pita stuffed full of hummus, cucumbers, tomatoes, parsley and tons of feta. now i am craving everything mediterranean! i bought the ingredients to make lemon orzo with asparagus and tomatoes and i have these on my to-make list:

I always crave mediterranean -- it's so fresh and light (mostly). My fave dish is tzitzki (sp?) and I could literally eat it by the gallon (from greek islands).

That looks delicious! Sam from Fitness, Food & Faith has a great recipe for tzaziki-esque sauce that's super easy. It's my go-to topping for lemon chicken.

Lemanie said...

I love Mediterranean food is my favorite!! This all looks good!! =)

Danielle / Breakfast at Toast + The Everygirl said...

Yummmm. So -- in response to your comment there are frenchie rescues. You may have to travel a bit but totally worth it. That's the only way I'd go about it.

Sara said...

I was sick last week, too! No fun. All this warm midwestern weather is really amping up those pesky viruses.

I'm going to try that lemon orzo soup this week. I love lemons and will eat them at any chance. So why not soup.

Leigh said...

yum. i could eat Mediterranean ANY day. one of my best friends in high school was greek & her mom always cooked delicious meals from scratch.
i miss that!
love, leigh
