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…

Christ is Risen! This is my go to ‘meatball’ recipe!!! I have tried so many and I think this is the one. I enjoy making this recipe when making food for large gatherings (especially for church! It is a hit for the fasting days) or for a quick dish to make for dinner because the…

Carrot and Spinach Breakfast Muffins
Christ is Risen! Glory be to God! Another recipe to share from Phaidon’s “The Greek Cookbook”. So far, nothing has been a disappointment from this cookbook. The recipes are easy to make vegan for someone who has an intolerance to dairy. The flavor combination of dill and cumin and the Greek yogurt is a mixture…

Christ is Risen! Not much of this world brings me such great joy except when I find a new recipe and can share with my loved ones, and we commune in joy. Much love can be felt when sharing a meal with those around you; it is a good feeling knowing that you prepared a…

Cheesy Carrot Keftedes
Christ is Risen! Lately I have been eating many Greek inspired dishes and going to our local Greek restaurant, Elea. From observation, a lot of the Greek foods are wholesome foods and many are plant based, or can be easily made plant based. In Greek culture, majority of the population is Orthodox Christian. Part of…
