Greek Mezze Board

Jump to Recipe

It’s Greek week here on WGC! Tons of recipes inspired by my recent trip are coming to the blog along with city guides to Athens, Santorini and Mykonos! First up – food. Greek Mezze, here we come!!

We’re kicking it all off with a big Greek Mezze board, because that’s how most meals in Greece start. Lots of dips, snacks, spreads, and things to get you ready for the main course. I’ve been obsessed with mezze for years and the Greek version is NEXT LEVEL. It’s all light, fresh, colorful and delish which makes it perfect for many reasons. Mostly importantly, you can eat it and still get into the ocean without feeling like a beached whale. Something that is super appreciated when you are LIVING at the beach.

It’s just a ton of my favorite things like homemade hummus, pita, tzatziki, this Sun Dried Tomato / Pepper Dip that might change your life. Throw on some cubes of feta, some veggies and then lay it out for everyone to enjoy! Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m trying to figure out a way to live in Greece for each and every summer from here on out! What’s Gaby Cooking Takes Greece. It needs to happen.

  1. Made this for my daughter’s bon voyage party to Greece. Fantastic! Made hummus (and skinned each chick pea) and tzasiki, pita chips with za’atar (which was so worth finding spice mix) and a bunch of other things. Thank you for the great recipes and inspiration for such a beautiful appetizer tray!
