"Magiritsa" (Greek Easter soup) with mushrooms

soups

The traditional Greek Easter soup is called “Magiritsa” and it’s basically a tasty soup that consists of lamb parts and lettuce. The original "magiritsa" recipe requires many chopped lamb parts, including lungs, liver and intestine but this recipe includes mushrooms instead of lamb parts that are customarily used and it’s another “version” of magiritsa... lighter and healthier! Could be called a "Mock Magiritsa" or a "Vegan Magiritsa".

Roasted Stuffed Leg of Lamb with Feta Cheese & Peppers

Versions of this stuffed leg of lamb are often first choice for Greek families at Easter, but this is such a beautiful dish that it's perfect for special occasions and family meals. Stuffing the butterflied leg of lamb with layers of peppers and cheese is easy to do, and when the final dish is sliced, the spiraling design of meat and stuffing is beautiful, and it tastes delicious.

Chocolate-Dipped Candied Orange Peel

sweets

Not only are these candied orange peels deliciously unique, it’s also a great way to make sure nothing goes to waste while still taking advantage of the season. Of course, you could use this technique for any citrus, including grapefruit, lemons, and limes. Chocolate-dipped candied orange peel (also known as orangettes) are a lovely holiday confection!
