Artichoke Dip adapted Robin Robertson
Christ is in our midst! We are on the way to St Nektarios Monastery listening to Keith Green. “My Eyes are Dry” is currently playing. Before bed, my eyes were not dry. Crying over my sins this week and being able to receive holy Communion yesterday and not to be burned by coal physically but…

Carrot Top Pesto
Christ is in our midst! The other day, I just wanted to buy parsley. However, I had no cash on hand so I had to buy more produce to use my card to meet the minimum $10. So, as I was looking at the produce, I thought what do I need? Not that I needed…

Love is patient \\ Greek Roasted Artichokes with Lemon and Basil
Christ is in our midst! Spring has passed, and we are in summer mode. Springtime, alongside summer, is when I really enjoy having artichokes. Spring to me is defined by different things. One, helios me thondia, which translates to sun with teeth. It is bright and sunny, but when you step out, there’s a “bite”…

Ankinares me saltsa lemoniou || Traditional Greek-Style Braised Artichokes with Potatoes and Carrots
Christ is in our midst! Hi my beloveds! There is a recipe I’ve been meaning to share for some time, like many of the recipes, but it takes hours or days even to share the nutritional benefits of each ingredient in the recipe. This is a veganized version of a recipe I came across at…

A Very Green Breakfast: Kale Pesto Toast with Steamed Brussels sprouts
Christ is Risen! Instead of “Anastasia’s Peaceful Kitchen”, I sometimes wonder if I should rename the blog “The Picky Eater”. I have been a very picky eater since I was a young girl. I have a strong distaste for tomatoes, pickles, fish, and some fermented things. Tomatoes, however, I don’t mind having as ketchup or…

Creamy Carbonara with Smoked Carrot ‘Bacon’ by Catherine Atkinson
Christ is risen! Who doesn’t love a good pasta dish? One so good you are transported to Italia! I love a good pasta; it is rare to find me eating a tomato based sauce. If you do, its because the marinara sauce is divine. Choosing the wrong tomatoes can mess up a sauce that is…

Sun-Dried Tomato Bread
Christ is risen! Summer is here, which means tomatoes are making an appearance and beginning to be in abundance. I am not a raw tomato person per se, except I don’t mind the occasional pasta all pomodoro, salsa, and ketchup. It’s odd that I am okay with cooked tomatoes but raw gives me nausea by…

Vegan Crab Cakes from Vegan Huggs Blog
Christ is risen! This has been my personal favorite faux crab cakes recipe. I stumbled upon it years ago and it’s my go to since. It is very easy to make, and if you don’t have chickpeas on hand, canned artichoke hearts can be used– I’ve tried it both ways and both are excellent. When…
