GREEK BAKLAVA

A Greek favorite that makes everyone think you are a master chef and is sooo easy to make!! I taught a Greek friend how to make apple pie and she taught me this fabulous recipe. The phyllo dough for this recipe is found in the freezer section of most grocery stores. Add a little lemon zest to the sugar sauce, if desired.

GREEK BALOU



Greek Balou image

My sister brought this recipe home from a friend in the 1970's. I don't know where the name came from but my mom made this all the time when we were kids. I still make it for my family. It's best when done in an iron skillet. It's great with a salad and bread and butter.

Category Recipe Roundup
  • Skordalia. Hearty, rich, and flavorful, skordalia is a must-try Greek dip! This dish takes its name from one of its main ingredients, skordo, or garlic.
  • Greek Salad. With Greeks’ heavy use of vegetables on their dishes, this roundup wouldn’t be complete without a proper veggie salad. You’ll only need seven ingredients to make this refreshing meal, and all of them are super easy to find at your local grocery store.
  • Greek Lemon Potatoes. Roasted thick potato wedges are flavored with a garlic-lemon broth. This is one addictive dish! Besides the delightful taste of Greek lemon potatoes, they have golden crisp edges that make for a crunchy bite.
  • Chicken Gyro. This Greek pita sandwich is loaded with chicken tenders, veggies, olives, and tzatziki sauce. Using a yogurt marinade for the chicken is the secret to its tantalizing flavor.
  • Greek Butter Cookies. If you want to infuse Greek flavors into your next holiday meal, these Greek butter cookies are a must-have. These cookies may not be the best-looking, but when you take a bite, you’ll have to go back for seconds!
  • Tzatziki. Tzatziki is a classic Greek meze (appetizer) that you’ll find in almost any Greek restaurant. This yogurt-cucumber sauce pairs well with gyros, grilled meats, and roasted vegetables.
  • Spanokopita. Healthy spinach and creamy feta cheese are all wrapped up in crispy phyllo dough. This is one of those Greek recipes you won’t want to miss!
  • Greek Fried Cheese. I thought the perfect appetizer for any meal didn’t exist until this Greek fried cheese (saganaki) came along. Crunchy meets gooey with this cheese, coupled with salty and zesty flavors.
  • Greek Fries. Dressing up plain fries Greek-style has never been easy with this recipe. All you’ll need is a simple homemade seasoning and a couple of Mediterranean toppings.
  • Greek Honey Cookies. Greek honey cookies are sticky, moist, and crunchy. In short, they’re to die for! If you’re looking for a new cookie recipe for the holidays, this is it.
