🍋👩🏻‍🍳🍃Comment ‘recipe’ below if you want the recipe for my Trout Balls and Orzo Recipe!! It will be sent directly to your DM’s or tap the link in my bio to access our website. 🍃👩🏻‍🍳🍋

Welcome Back to Episode 17 of Getting To Know Your Greek Bestie! Today we’re making Trout Balls nestled in Creamy Green Onions + Orzo! If you love delicious, easy, flavor-packed food then be sure to follow 👩🏻‍🍳🔪@foodbymaria so you never miss a recipe!

The moment I discovered I could turn ANY protein into balls, it was game over for anything store-bought. When I tell you these trout balls come out perfectly cooked, juicy and 200% better than anything you’ve ever bought frozen you better believe me! They’re giving fish cakes with all the characteristics of a meatball. Seared on a pan to start developing the dish flavours and then finished nestled in with all the creamy orzo and green onions (one of my FAV ingredients EVERRRRR).

I used @bapcertification @colemunrofoods trout responsibly raised in Ontario in these Juicy Trout Balls! @bapcertification is an aquaculture certification program that exists to ensure your seafood is being sourced responsibly. They ensure that farmed seafood meets four key requirements – environmental responsibility, worker safety and welfare, food safety and animal health & welfare through the production chain.

Look for the blue stamp of approval on the packaging to know your fish is BAP-certified!

Welcome Back to Episode 16 Of Getting To Know Your Greek 🇬🇷Bestie! Today we are making Greek Yogurt Coffee Cake! If you love delicious, easy, flavour-packed food then be sure to follow 👩🏻‍🍳🔪@foodbymaria so you never miss a recipe!

When you think of Greek desserts you probably think of Baklava but has anyone ever introduced you to Moist Greek Yogurt Coffee Cake?! The texture is unlike any dry, dull, boring cake you’ve ever had. It’s incredibly easy to make and pairs gorgeous with a morning brew, as a dessert or as a sweet snack! Coffee cakes don’t traditionally have coffee in them but I thought that since coffee is a prerequisite for chocolate because it heightens the flavors… it should technically do the same in a moist coffee cake. I WAS RIGHT! The subtle hints of coffee are so glorious. The cake is so moist, the streusel is perfectly sweet, and just the right amount of crunchy!

I shopped for La Colombe Cold Brew at @harristeeter to bring this beautiful cake to life! Bring this fun, fantastic and easy dessert to your next gathering, or serve it for yourself at your next little cute party! I assure you that your guests will go CRAZY for this.

Welcome Back to Episode 15 of Getting To Know Your Greek Bestie! Today we’re making a One Pot Broccoli, Cheesy Chicken and Rice Casserole! If you love delicious, easy, flavor-packed food then be sure to follow 👩🏻‍🍳🔪@foodbymaria so you never miss a recipe!

This dish is inspired by the iconic and Viral FoodByMaria recipe Kotopoulo Me Patates Lemonata Sto Fourno. If you’ve tried that recipe (or my Greek Lemon Chicken and Rice) then you’re going to love this hot American take!

This is truly the simplest family dinner! Not only is is easy AF but it’s DELICOUS!! I mean, common, look at that texture and the cheeeese. Fluffy rice, juicy cooked to perfection chicken, broccoli and cheese… damn. What I love most about this dish is that if teaches the techniques to cooking with passion and instinct! Not everything has to be over complicated, one pot recipes are the best and pack punch! Cooking the chickecn on high heat till seared to perfection brings a base level of flavours to this dish that you can’t ignore!

You can serve this dish as is or with a side of steamed greens or a fresh fall salad!

Welcome Back to Episode 14 of Getting To Know Your Greek Bestie! Today we’re making Manakeesh, also known as Lahm Bi Ajeen with @yaza.foods! If you love delicious, easy, flavor-packed food then be sure to follow 👩🏻‍🍳🔪@foodbymaria so you never miss a recipe!

🫓👩🏻‍🍳Comment ‘recipe’ below if you want the recipe for my Manakeesh recipe!! It will be sent directly to your DM’s or tap the link in my bio to access our website. 👩🏻‍🍳🫓

Manakeesh is traditionally cooked in a wood fire oven (but can be cooked in a conventional oven) with za’atar, cheese, beef or a variety of different toppings. Served on its own or with hummus, spices, olive oil or labneh! It’s truly a magical baked good and rather easy since it’s fairly uncomplicated - making it a very approachable dish to try!

Labneh is the perfect condiment for manakeesh! It also pairs well with many other meats, vegetables and breads. It’s creamy, delicious and tastes like a cross between cream cheese and Greek yogurt. You can find Yaza’s Plain Labneh and Yaza’s Za’atar & Olive Oil Labneh across the nation - head to our website and check out our store locator to find a store nearest to you! Yaza is the only labneh on the market that is made the traditional way of straining the milk, not blending it with thickeners or preservatives. Yaza labneh is high in protein, low in fat and packed with probiotics. Add it to anything, you can’t go wrong! Follow @yaza.foods for more recipe ideas.
