My favorites are greek salad with feta cheese, olives, cucumbers, tomatoes and a tangy lemon vinaigrette. No lettuce required. I also like couscous with all of the fixings, and tsatziki sauce, but I wouldn't suggest eating it by itself, usually one would eat it with gyros, but those are semi easy to make. Hummus and pita bread is a favorite too. And for something sweet, Greek yogurt with honey and walnuts, although I usually don't eat it with walnuts. Greek food is amazing, hope you get to try some.Give me your favorite easy Mediterranean recipes.?
