Is there anything more heart-warming and belly-filling than a great bowl of chicken soup? For many families that automatically brings to mind a home-made chicken noodle soup, and although we would never deny the "make-everything-better" quality of chicken noodle soup, we would like to present you with another alternative. For us growing up, trahana soup with chicken was what we were served when we were under the weather, stressed from school, or just needing some belly filling love. Made with sweet trahana, this amazing soup comes together quickly and with few ingredients. How wonderful! Head on over to our blog for the complete recipe, some trahana info, and links to our previously published trahana recipes. Hope your week started off right guys! xoxo. . . .

A recent Mia Kouppa cooking session with our parents resulted in these paximadia. Similar to Italian biscotti, these paximadia are double-baked, loaded with walnuts and other good stuff and perfect for dunking into Greek coffee. Hope your weekend so far has been sweet and wonderful! . . . . .#paximadia #paximathia #biscotti . . . #miakouppa #greekfood #greekcooking #greekrecipes #greek #fbcigers #chatelainemag #huffpostliving #huffposttaste #thekitchn #bhgfood #rslove #FNCEats #lifeandthyme #kitchn #tastingtable #yahoofood #imsomartha #instayum #thesugarfiles #buzzfeast #mypinterest #marthabakes #eattheworld #bareaders #makeitdelicious

We eat rooster. Yes...we do. And we think that this dish of kokora (that's Greek for rooster) and okra (Yes! Okra!) will make you love this poultry. Before you shake your head, keep in mind that rooster is just a male chicken. Head on over to the blog for a complete description of this meal, including how to prepare okra so that they are perfectly slime-free 😊😊 . .

Today may be Valentine's Day, but yesterday was Wear Red Canada Day, to raise awareness about women's heart health. What a lovely coincidence that these days follow one another. So, on this Valentine's Day, consider marking the occasion with a heart friendly bowl of red-hued fruit. (Check out the heart shaped strawberries!). Or, perhaps even better, enjoy a luscious Valentine's Day dessert, but take a minute to read up on women's heart health by visiting the Canadian Women's Heart Health Centre website. We appreciate each and every one of you, and want you at your healthiest best 🙂 🙂. . . . . #miakouppa #valentinesday #fruitsalad #fruitbowl #fruitoftheday #imsomartha #thefeedfeed #foodblogfeed #kitchenbowl #lifeandthyme #buzzfeedfood #foodfluffer #foodphotography #myopenkitchen #homecooking #instafood #f52grams #onmytable #eatgood #fbcigers #eatprettythings #fromscratch #tastingtable #herheartmatters

Yiouvarlakia with avgolemono has a special place in our hearts. This soup of rice studded meatballs served with an egg-lemon enriched broth is so delicate in flavour and texture that it is easily enjoyed by young palates. Probably why our parents made this dish so often for us growing up, and why it was a regular menu item from papou and yiayia when our girls were little. We can't help but feel wonderfully nostalgic when a bowl of our parents' yiouvarlakia is set before us. Head on over to the blog for the complete recipe and for lots of helpful hints related to the actual meatballs, and the egg lemon sauce (including a not-to-be-missed, critical , and slightly odd, step 🙂 ). . . .

Given that the day of love is coming up, we thought we would share something that we love with all of you, our lovely Instagram family. Several years ago, long before website building and blogging was even a thought bubble in our minds, one of us fell upon @glorioustreats website, and we were immediately smitten. Glory's dessert creations are, without fail, incredible...and believe us, we have tried many of her recipes. A particular favourite are these Perfectly Chocolate Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting. You can find the recipes to both of these on her website www.glorioustreats.com, along with loads of other wonderful desserts. You should also consider giving her a follow on Instagram, because her feed is pretty, her desserts are amazing (have we mentioned that already) and she also seems like a really nice lady 🙂 Hope you're all having a great Tuesday, full of love, joy and cupcakes. . . . . .#chocolatelover #chocolatecupcakes #bakerslife . . . . #miakouppa #imsomartha #dessertfirst #bareaders #marthabakes #fbcigers #chatelainemag #huffpostliving #huffposttaste #thekitchn #bhgfood #rslove #FNCEats #lifeandthyme #kitchn #tastingtable #yahoofood #instasweet #instayum #foodwinewoman #timefordessert #mypinterest #onthetable #eattheworld #simplefood #makeitdelicious

If you love mozzarella sticks, do we have a treat for you! These halloumi sticks or fries are the Greek version of that well known pub food appetizer, except they’re different (in large part because there is no mozzarella in them 🙂 ) . All kidding aside, if you have never tried halloumi fries, we strongly suggest that you change that. And if you are wondering what the heck halloumi is, let's fix that too. A Cypriot unripened semi-soft cheese, halloumi is distinct due to its high melting point, meaning, you can heat this cheese up quite a bit without ending up with a gooey mess. Perfect for frying. Halloumi is also quite salty, and goes perfectly with this lovely sweet, and spicy and tangy dipping sauce that we've paired it with. Head on over to the blog for the complete recipe, and some more halloumi info. xoxo. . . .

Full disclosure. We had every intention of sharing with you our Thea Voula's pizza recipe today...a recipe definitely worth sharing, and maybe even comparing, to our parents' recipe posted earlier this week. Both pizzas 🍕 are amazing but different, and having options is great. But...here's the thing. If you've been following along, you may remember that one of us is a bit less (much less) organized than the other. It just so happens that this is also the same one of us who does the recipe writing. And...it also so happens, that somehow, this same somebody has misplaced the actual recipe for Thea Voula's pizza. 🥴Sigh. The neat and organized half of Mia Kouppa is responsible for the photos so here are some pizza pics, which weren't lost, to tide you over until the recipe is found. And it will be found...eventually! 😊😊. . . . . . .#pizza #pizzatime #nationalpizzaday . . . #miakouppa #storyofmytable #cooking #seriouseats #greek #fbcigers #chatelainemag #huffpostliving #huffposttaste #thekitchn #bhgfood #rslove #FNCEats #lifeandthyme #kitchn #tastingtable #yahoofood #imsomartha #instayum #foodwinewoman #bareaders #mypinterest #onthetable #eattheworld #simplefood #makeitdelicious
