Greek Salad Pizza

I had been gardening all morning, in part trimming my massive rosemary down to a large plant. I wanted something with rosemary in it, so decided to make a Greek Salad Pizza.



 

Bell Pepper and Kale Puttanesca Stir Fry

 I was looking for a bell pepper side dish, and mixed two recipes to make this Bell Pepper and Kale Puttanesca Stir Fry,

 

Olive Fougasse

I read something about a fougasse, and decided to look it up. I then needed to make this olive sourdough  fougasse.

Tuscan White Bean, Kale, and Olive Soup

I bought olives since I remembered I was using up the last of a bottle. I did this twice. Both times from Costco. So with 5 large bottles of olives, I'm looking for olive recipes. I also had kale, and some bell peppers, and so I made this soup.

Beef and Olive Empanadas

We have another concert tonight at Timucua -- we think it will feature classical guitarists, so I decided to learn how to make baked Spanish Beef and Olive Empanadas.They turned out like this:

Greek Sheet Pan Chicken

I wanted to try one of those sheet pan recipes I'd been seeing on the Internet. I had feta and green beans, so made Greek Sheet Pan Chicken.

Olive Sourdough Bread

 I felt like a non-loaf style olive bread for this week. Here's what I came up with.

Spinach Artichoke Olive Tapenade

I wanted a light lunch, and I had the end of a week old sourdough bread. I decided to slice the bread thinly, and top it with a spinach artichoke olive tapenade. (I was going for a cross between pesto and a traditional olive tapenade.)

Spaghetti alla Puttanesca

I had some feta to use up, and was feeling like pasta. The union of my pantry and my Google searches came up with Spaghetti alla Puttanesca. This can be a vegetarian dish if you use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

Feta Chicken Pasta

I needed a dinner plan for someone who likes to cook, but is allergic to bell peppers. I decided on pasta, with chicken, spinach, and feta.

Mediterranean Wonton Bites

The leftover wonton wrappers wanted to be used up, and so did some feta and jalapeno.
After some recipe surfing, I decided to make Mediterranean Wonton Bites.

 
 

Mediterranean Pepper, Olive, and Pastrami Pasta

I had a lot of turkey pastrami left over from the weekend, and somehow found a Mediterranean Pasta with pepper, onion, and olives recipe. This works as either a warm pasta dish or a cold salad - my version served 2 for dinner.

Sicilian Olive Chicken

Today's chef challenge - use chicken, spinach, and olives in a quick dinner recipe.

I googled a bit, and made a version of Sicilian Olive Chicken:

Olive Rosemary Feta Pistachio Focaccia

Chef challenge - I had feta that I wanted to use up. Hmm, and plenty of rosemary in the garden. So add in some olives from the refrigerator, and I could make Olive Rosemary Feta Focaccia.
