Roasted
lamb and chicken, lemon, yogurt, and herbs like oregano and rosemary are some
of the better ingredients featured in this flavorful cuisine. On the other hand, buttery filo-crusted pies,
heaps of feta cheese, and pools of olive oil can blow your fat and calorie
budget in a hurry. Choose these items
most often:
1. Bean and lentil soups; avgolemono (lemon and
egg) soup; vegetable soup; fish soups.
2. Shish kabobs made of roasted lamb or chicken
and vegetables.
3. Baked fish dishes such as Plaki (fish baked with tomatoes, onions, and garlic) and fish baked in grape leaves; baked chicken dishes (Ask they use a minimal amount of butter or oil in baked dishes.)

4. Gyro sandwiches made with grilled chicken or
lean rotisserie meat.
5. Greek salads made with just a tablespoon or
two of feta cheese and a light vinaigrette dressing
6. Fruit compotes; marinated fruits
