Avgolemono Lemon Soup, Greek Salad, Greek Chicken, Honey Rice, Pita Bread, and Tzatziki Sauce.
Start with Lemon Soup if you like it. I've had some that are kind of curdled eggy and sort of slimy but this recipe is just about right. Sometimes we have it and sometimes we don't.
Greek Salad for our family is flexible with the ingredients but very hard to have without cucumber and if its just cucumber, that's fine. I love the Greek Olives although the rest of the family doesn't so I add them to my salad afterwards. The dressing is too strong and salty for some, so have it on the side to toss individual portions if you're unsure.
This recipe for Greek Chicken and Rice is so easy and I like to make double to make sure to have leftovers. Everyone in the family also loves the Honey Rice that goes with it.
Pita Bread ( I make it from scratch but storebought works fine) is impossible for our family to have without Tzatziki Sauce similar to it being difficult to not have a good Balsamic vinegar and olive oil for Italian bread to dip in. The sauce recipe is adapted to the taste of our family and the supplies that we easily have on hand. It tastes better as it sits and we put it on all kinds of things for the next few days until it is gone.
Leftover Chicken and salad and tzaziki sauce are wonderful the next day with feta cheese for Greek Pizza.
