Vegetarian Greek Recipes

Greek cooking is accidentally one of the most vegetarian-friendly cuisines in Europe, because the Orthodox fasting calendar demanded it for roughly half the year.

Greek cooking accommodates most dietary requirements without special effort, largely because the Orthodox fasting calendar required it for roughly half the year. Dishes developed to meet those restrictions are not diminished versions of anything, they are the tradition itself.

Recipes here include Tzatziki, Horiatiki salata, Spanakopita, Baklavas, Gigantes plaki and Melitzanosalata.

Every recipe on Kalliopi's Kitchen carries the dish's Greek name and a pronunciation, its region where that is meaningful, ingredient quantities in both metric and imperial, and an honest note on what commonly goes wrong. Nutrition figures are calculated estimates and are labelled as such.
