Baked Feta with Stone Fruits

July 10, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon 1 Comment

Baked feta is all over the internet. And with good reason, heat turns one simple piece of salty cheese into a deliciously creamy element in a host of applications.  That baked feta pasta is about the only viral food trend that has appealed to me, and it is a good one. But as with many of these “new” internet hacks, or discoveries, or inventions, those of us of a … [Read more...] about Baked Feta with Stone Fruits

Shrimp, Orzo and Feta Salad

June 19, 2022 by TheRunawaySpoon 1 Comment

I love a hearty cold pasta salad in the summer. This version is inspired by the classic Greek flavors of shrimp, feta and tomatoes, which is a favorite combination for me. The fresh tomato vinaigrette and pops of salty feta marry with Greek-inspired herbs, with a little fennel for crunch and bite.

Green Bean Salad with Fennel and Feta and Crispy Shallots

Now, I was pretty sure someone was … [Read more...] about Green Bean Salad with Fennel and Feta and Crispy Shallots

Every year, I look forward with great anticipation to the Memphis Greek Festival. I go as soon as it opens and stock up on frozen spanikopita, delight at the flaming cheese saganaki and pig out on the cookies and pastries made by the ladies of the church. And it always gets me thinking about Greek recipes. I’ve only been to Greece once, many years ago, with friends on a budget … [Read more...] about Greek Style Green Bean Salad

Greek Inspired Shrimp and Feta Spaghetti

June 19, 2016 by The Runaway Spoon Leave a Comment

The Greek flavors of a shrimp, tomato and feta are a favorite of mine, and always remind me of summer, and a trip to Greece and the island of Mykonos one summer many years ago. Our favorite dish was Shrimp Saganaki, a rich tomato sauce with shrimp nestled in, covered in a blanket of fresh feta cheese. None of my travelling companions or I knew much about Greek food at the time, … [Read more...] about Greek Inspired Shrimp and Feta Spaghetti

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
