Greece Round-up

Welcome to our MKMW May destination Greece Round-up!



First up we have Seemie at Erbe in Cucina with a gorgeous Chicken Souvlaki with Honey and Aromatic Herbs, looks delicious!

~~~



Next up we have another beautifully plated dish, Yogurt Spaghetti & Lamb Meatballs from CJW at Unchained Kitchen, looks like the perfect Greek lunch to me!

~~~



Margaret from Tea and Scones is back to traveling with a beautiful Revani -- Semolina Sponge Cake that is soaked with a Lemon Syrup, what a perfect dessert!

~~~

No picture from Joanna at In Search of Lost Time, but a delicious recipe for Homemade Croutons and Greek Dressing, just perfect for her Greek Chicken Salad.

~~~




At Nummy Kitchen, I made some Gyro Style Greek Veggie Wraps with homemade Greek Flat Bread that I haven't had a chance to blog about yet, turned out similar to the Veggie Gyros you can get at Greek restaurants which was just what I was going for :)

What a delicious round-up for Greece! Thanks to everyone who cooked along!

Egypt Round-up

Finally, our destination Egypt round-up is here -- enjoy :)



First up we have Glennis at Can't Believe We Ate with a beautiful dish of Braised Lamb Shanks, love the pistachios!

~~~




Next up we have Corina at Searching for Spice with a plate of Chicken Shish Kebabs, which reminded her of her holiday to Egypt last year, which I'm sure was amazing!

~~~



Janet at the taste space has treated us to an Egyptian Bread and Butter Pudding for dessert, looks wonderful!

~~~



CJW at Unchained Kitchen came up with a Middle East Pitza that starts with a toasted pita and includes baba ganoush, pine nuts, chicken, and a tangy tzatziki, it sounds delicious!


~~~



Janet at the taste space has treated us to a second Egyptian dish, a main this time -- Roasted Cauliflower and Chickpeas with Dukkah, it looks so flavorful, yum!


~~~




Joanna at In Search of Lost Time made an Egyptian Couscous Salad and served it with melon on the side, what a perfect light lunch.

~~~


Thank you so much to everyone who participated with our destination Egypt and sorry for getting this round-up posted so late! All of the dishes look wonderful!



Take care,

Andrea
