Mediterranean Veggie Wrap

July 3, 2022 Amanda Plott

With a busy holiday weekend and a holiday itself cutting into the week, I like to be sure that I have plenty of ready-made lunches on hand so that I don’t have to fret about it in the midst of chaos. This Mediterranean Veggie Wrap is one of my new favorite grab-and-go lunches. It’s cool, and crisp, and filling while also being light and vegetarian too!

This wrap starts out with lavash bread, which is honestly my preferred wrap because it can double as a tortilla, and triple as a flat bread pizza crust! Plus, it’s super high in fiber and low in calories. So, you get a lot of bang for your buck. They can do pretty much anything and have just enough stretch to make for the perfect vehicle for a wrap…

Greek Spinach & Feta Veggie Patties

February 21, 2022 Amanda Plott

It’s meatless. It’s Monday. It’s a meatless Monday! These Greek Spinach & Feta Veggie Patties are as tricky and as tasty as they come. I made these patties with a vegetarian ground plant-based ‘meat’ which looks like, tastes like, and cooks up just like ground beef. I loaded these quarter pound patties up with spinach, sun-dried tomatoes, and of course some feta cheese to give a little bit of a Greek or Mediterranean twist.

And let me just tell you, they are so sooo good and end up being perfect on their own or as burgers! This time I decided to serve them up all on their own with some roasted veggies for a well rounded meatless, guilt-free, and delicious dinner…

Tomato & Feta Cheese Spaghetti

November 19, 2021 Amanda Plott

With the holidays hot on my heels, I’m keeping it simple this week when it comes to meals. Well… you know, outside of the big main meal that’s coming up that is. This Tomato & Feta Cheese Spaghetti is just about easy as it comes. Just toss some tomatoes and feta into dish and bake it for a bit with some oil and seasoning. Then toss with pasta and tada! Dinner.

This stuff is good too. AND it’s super easy to double up on if you have a larger crowd to feed. Plus, I love the fact that this spaghetti dinner is vegetarian too. It’s a meatless meal that everyone can enjoy!…

Skinny Greek 7 Layer Dip

June 12, 2021 Amanda Plott

I’ve been wanting to make a Greek version of a 7 layer dip for a while now and I finally got the chance today! The AC is being replaced and lets just say that with no AC and the heat index being well into the triple digits we needed something cool and light to munch on. That’s where this Greek 7 Layer Dip comes in.

Layer one is a seasoned cream cheese spread, layer two is hummus because hummus is yummus! For layer three you have zucchini (or cucumber), layer four is fresh diced tomato, with layer five comes some of my most favorite olives - kalamata. Towards the end is layer six with crumbled feta cheese, and finally layer seven is your sprinkling of green onions…

Spring Vegetable Crudités Plate

To go along with my Skinny Whipped Feta Dip from yesterday, I decided to make a beautiful plate of Spring veggies! The plate is half Spring inspired and half Mediterranean inspired to go along with the feta dip. Along with the other disable bits, there’s some olives and capers on the plate too.

The plate of Crudités starts off with the Skinny Whipped Feta Dip. Then there’s plenty of slices zucchini, salami, tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, berries, and of course… olives and capers! I’ve made my fair share of plates, trays, and other sorts of sharable appetizers before. But, I have to say that this Spring Vegetable Crudités Plate is well balanced and one of my new faves!…

Skinny Whipped Feta Dip

April 8, 2019 Amanda Plott

The weather here in Texas right now is all over the place. We’ve gone from near freezing, to sunny and 90 degrees, and on further to torrential downpours of rain all in the matter of a couple of days. I almost feel like I should be doing the reverse of a rain dance at this point. But, besides bringing in a plethora of allergens, the weather has left us with an immense amount of Spring flowers this season.

So, I’m pushing on with the Spring inspired recipes. And this Skinny Whipped Feta Dip is topping the charts. To go along with the Spring season, I picked up some Spring inspired essentials. Namely, fresh produce including zucchini, tomatoes, lemon, and dill!…
