So my dear friend (and excellent cook, might I add) asked me about the possibility of her doing a guest post on my blog and I thought, “What a great idea!” I’m sure my readers would be interested in learning more about whatever incredible food knowledge she might have. So here she is in all her cooking glory, talking to you about the most delectable Greek specialty there is (sorry baklava fans, but I’m partial):
Hello, my name is Sondra and my very good friend said I could make a post about my favorite dish. My
very favorite dish of all time is Spanakopita. Say it with me now, Span-eh-co-pita. Translation: Spinach Pie. Why do I like it so much? Well simply put,
it’s because I’m Greek. I grew up with Spanakopita being made in my house all
the time. It was especially made around the holidays and with the holidays
coming up, I’ve been a little nostalgic lately. I try to carry on the tradition
and I make a lot of it during the holidays for friends and family. My father
and I also make it for our church events, because at my church it’s not an
“event” unless you have lots of food.
