It's All Greek to Me

We love ethnic foods, the flavors, the aromas, the colors, the textures.

Greek, Italian, Thai, Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Mexican - we really love ethnic flavors more than we enjoy typical American foods.

I was craving the flavors of Greek food when I made this up for dinner one night the other week and it came out so delicious I will have to add this to our regular mix of meals.
