Catch me getting fat before Great Lent 🐷

Today is the joyful forefeast of the time of abstinence, the bright threshold of the Fast. Therefore, brethren, together let us run the race with confident hope and with great eagerness.

It looks like we are in for a long winter. We're talkin' lock-down city. Today, I am sharing my take on a cheese pie with figs that I tasted last year in #Naxos. These are definitely savory but that sweetness from the dried figs offers a nice foil to the richness of the cheeses. For those Orthodox Christians observing #Cheesefare week, this is right up your alley. This recipe can be retrieved over at [link in profile], which will take you to my Kalofagas site. https://www.kalofagas.ca/2020/12/04/cheese-pies-with-figs/ #GreekCheese #ComfortFood #GreekFood #GreekCooking #GreekRecipes #GreekFoodPorn #GreekFoodBlogger #GreekGastronomy #MediterraneanDiet #InMyKitchen #GreekDiet #GreekChef #MediterraneanFood #FoodAndWine #chefofinstagram #food52grams #fulfillment #cheflife #cookingwithlove #cookinggram #yahoofood #cookbooks #amazonbooks #realfood #picoftheday #heresmyfood #foodpornto #greekwine (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CakF3HKOBss/?utm_medium=tumblr

In a couple of weeks, Apokries aka the Greek Carnival period will come to an end. I am holding a #cheesefare Greek Supper Club on March 6th. There will be no meat on the menu but lots of dairy, cheeses, seafood in on the menu. We'll start the evening off with my Ouzo/Beet Cured Salmon, similar to how I served it in this photo a few years ago.
