Living in Greece taught me that you don’t have to be a vegetarian to really enjoy vegetarian food!

Eggplant is one of my favorite veggie ingredients! Choose from this very easy and delicious eggplant lasagna, this Greek baked eggplant with tomato and feta or this traditional Sicilian aubergine pasta (pasta alla norma).

More favourite veggie mains include this 30-minute pan-fried gnocchi with cherry tomatoes or this comfort classic with a twist: 30-minute Greek mac and cheese bake.

Or how about halloumi for a delicious and ‘meaty’ alternative to meat? These halloumi burgers are great for a quick 15-minute midweek meal. Also, this post: how to cook halloumi is a gem.

Just need a snack? For the best sandwich ever, try this Italian toasted veggie sandwich.
