Newbie – Greek Delight!

I have been lucky enough to spend time in New York with my husband’s family. We have had a wonderful vacation with the kiddos. Last Night my (greek) brother in law made us this delightful dish. My brother in law owns a restaurant in Brooklyn (the menu features some of our recipes!) he can cook, the flavor was incredible. It didn’t take more than 25 minutes from start to finish. He said it’s a dish his mother would make him when he was a little boy in Greece. I watched him whip up the dish and wrote down the ingredients as he was cooking. He does not use exact measurements so he and I guessed together. I would say its pretty accurate. 

Greek Delight


1 white onion chopped

1/2 bunch of green onions (about 5) chopped

1 bunch of fresh dill, about 3/4 cup chopped

1-2 TBSP olive oil

1 can on cannellini beans, drained and rinsed

2 cans of artichokes hearts in water, keep liquid

1 lemon for juice

In a medium size pot, warm olive oil and add onions both white and green to saute for 3 or 4 minutes. Add the freshly chopped dill, stir and continue to saute on medium heat. Combine the rest of ingredients into the pot and stir. Cook over medium heat for 15-20 minutes or until soft. Serve warm. 

Seriously easy and seriously delicious!

Sending you Greek Love,

~Newbie
