Taste of Greece - Holidays on a plate

Even though the weather starts gettin' a bit more pleasant (well...a tiny bit), still it's much too long until summer - so why not get yourself a bit of greek summer taste to overcome that melancholy?

Spinach - feta cheese - tomato - olive oil - lemon

For this simply but delicious, typical greek dish you can use either spinach or any other green leave such as chard (mangold), dandelion or nettle - each greek househould has it's own sepcial mix of greens for "horta". Make sure you use high-quality native olive oil - this will give that typical holiday taste!

SPINACH did you know that most of the calories in spinach come from protein? Above that spinach is one of the best sources of dietary potassium and a great non-heme source of iron, along with lentils, tuna and eggs. Spinach is also one of the best sources of dietary magnesium, which is necessary for energy metabolism, maintaining muscle and nerve function, heart rhythm, a healthy immune system and maintaining blood pressure.

FETA is a good source of Protein, Riboflavin, Vitamin B12, Calcium and Phosphorus.
