Quick & Succulent Pizza Snack
I improvised. I had some table water cookies and thought that they would make a good crust. I worried that they would get soggy, but they didn’t at all. They were perfect. I made the sauce quickly, using ketchup and spices. Twenty minutes after Scott voiced the desire for pizza for lunch, we were sitting down to enjoy it.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Smoothie
According to the Abs Diet for Women, smoothies are perfect for meal substitutions (and when I say that, I’m referring to a lifestyle that has you eating something every couple of hours, not substituting only one of 2 or 3 meals a day – I believe that would not be beneficial to your body or your mind) and as potent snacks. The author says that they work for a number of reasons:
Pin ItStuffed Grape Leaves with Rice & Grated Vegetables (Dolmathakia Yialantzi)
In a Mexican restaurant, my husband, Gregg, will determine whether he’ll be back or not based on the taste and quality of their tamales. I do the same thing with Greek and Mediterranean restaurants and grape leaves. Grape leaves are an absolute favorite dish of mine. You can easily refrigerate any extra stuffing and use it as a side dish for another meal. The lack of meat, dairy, and eggs makes this the perfect dish for Lent or Daniel Fast. And, notice how I’ve given you yet another wonderful dish with which to use up those zucchini come August?
Pin ItGreek Lenten Tomato Fritters (Domatokeftethes)
Tomato fritters are a delightful appetizer or side dish, and a specialty of Santorini, a Greek island known for its tomatoes. The combination of herbs can be adjusted to include dill, parsley, basil, mint, or oregano, depending on taste preference. The recipe calls for self-rising flour. This meatless, eggless, dairyless dish is perfect for Lent or a Daniel Fast. The fresh vegetables in it also make a wonderful summer dish to prepare with the bounty out of a vegetable garden (and, come on – who isn’t desperately searching for zucchini recipes right around mid-August?)
Pin ItHealthy, Thrifty Homemade Crackers
Crackers are Daniel Fast friendly, Orthodox Fast friendly, and suitable for Lent. You can make crackers using various types of cooking surface, using many different kinds of grain, adding various seasonings if you like, and in just about any kind of shape you want too. Best of all, they are easy to make.
Pin ItGreek Lenten Fritters (Tiganites)
Similar to small pancakes, these light, crispy medallion-sized treats are a delight served with honey or petimezi… or with syrup, preserves, or a creative topping of your own design. They can be eaten as a sweet snack, with breakfast, or as a brunch dish. Favorites during The Great Lent, these contain no eggs or dairy products. If served with honey, they are perfect for a Daniel Fast as well.
Pin ItNon-Refried “Refried” Black & Pinto Beans Bean Dip
Flavorful, friendly refried bean dip seasoned with garlic, peppers, and cumin. You make these in your slow-cooker so they are healthy and delicious.
