Loaded Grecian Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Cut the red bell pepper in half from top to bottom; remove the stem, seeds, and ribs; place pepper cut-side-down onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Cook under the preheated broiler until the skin of the pepper has blackened and blistered, about 5 minutes. Allow the blackened pepper to cool and steam in a paper bag for 5 minutes; peel and dice; set aside.
• Stir together the 2 ounces feta cheese, mayonnaise, lime juice, the 1 sprig chopped mint, and the 1 sprig chopped parsley in a small bowl; set aside.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Place the roasted red pepper, ground beef, feta cheese, spinach, bread crumbs, egg, garlic, onion, basil, the remaining mint, and the remaining parsley in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and mix gently with your hands until evenly combined. Divide the meat mixture to form 4 equal 4 1/2 inch patties.
• Cook on the preheated grill until the burgers are cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C). Serve burgers on warm toasted Kaiser roll with the feta cheese spread, fresh tomatoes, and lettuce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Spread French fries on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown and crispy, 10 to 12 minutes. Sprinkle salt on potatoes when they come out of the oven.
• Divide French fries evenly among plates and drizzle with tzatziki sauce. Top with red onion, banana peppers, olives, tomatoes, and feta cheese. Garnish with fresh parsley, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately with fresh lemon wedges.

Steps:

• 1. Place a large glass or two smaller glasses in the freezer to chill, until ready to use.
• 2. Blend peach nectar, peach schnapps and lemon vodka (if using) orange juice and lemon juice together. Mix well.
• 3. Add the crushed ice to chilled glass.
• 4. Pour the mixed juices over the crushed ice, add club soda, garnish with peach wedge and citrus slices.
• 5. Sit back and enjoy.

Steps:

• Toss the French fries with the dried oregano and olive oil, then cook following pack instructions.
• While the fries are cooking, mix the cucumber with the black olives, cherry tomatoes and parsley. Mix the Greek yogurt with half of the crumbled feta in a separate bowl. Tip the fries into a serving dish, top with the salad and yogurt mixture, then scatter over the remaining crumbled feta. Season and serve.
