When Princess V was just a little toddler, she loved Banana’s. I was at the bookstore, when I came across this book – Daddy’s Girl by Garrison Keillor
It’s all about this Dad and his little girl and the adventures they have throughout life. One section is called B-a-n-a-n-a-s. It lists a bunch of foods she’ll eat, but at the end she’s still asking for bananas. Well one of the foods listed is Souvlaki. I’ve always wondered what it was, and had this goal – yes from reading a board book – to try out Souvlaki.
As I was researching Greek food, there is was again – Souvlaki. I knew it was time to give it a try. Guys, I can’t believe I didn’t do this sooner!! It’s full of flavor, and OH SO EASY! Normally it is served with Tzatziki which is a cucmber yogurt. I didn’t have all the ingredients for it when I started, so you’ll notice I just used yogurt and cucumbers on mine. I have big plans this month though revolving around Greek food – tzatziki, hummus, and homemade pita to give you an idea.

As you may notice – this month we are visiting Greece. Did you know that the official name of Greece is actually The Hellenic Republic? I had no idea. Of course that’s according to Wikipedia…
Next month: India
Oh yum! This looks great!!
Thanks so much Kelley!
I've never made souvlaki… I know it's very versatile with chicken, beef or pork. Looks great.
it really is Diane! Also depending on where you get your souvlaki it has different names, and seasoning as well.
