3 FREEZER STAPLES FOR EASY, DELICIOUS HOME COOKING!
We teamed up with , who created this video to share three vegetables she always keeps in her freezer: spinach, peas, and Greek flat green beans!
Why frozen? They’re convenient, versatile, help reduce food waste, and save you those last-minute trips to the grocery store.
These vegetables are grown in Greece and imported here, making it easy to bring traditional Greek flavors into your own kitchen.
Here are three delicious Mediterranean meals you can make with them:
SPANAKORIZO (Greek Spinach & Rice)
A comforting dish made with spinach, rice, olive oil, onions, and herbs. Delicious with feta cheese and fresh lemon!
ARAKAS LADEROS (Greek Peas & Potatoes)
Tender peas simmered with potatoes, carrots, tomatoes, olive oil, and fresh dill.
FASOLAKIA LADERA (Greek Green Beans & Potatoes)
Flat green beans slowly cooked with potatoes, tomatoes, onions, and olive oil until perfectly tender.
Simple ingredients, wholesome homemade meals, and authentic Greek flavors!
You can find all three freezer staples at Mediterranean Foods in Astoria, Queens!
And we’re not done shopping! Stay tuned for our next video, where we’ll explore pantry staples to help bring these delicious meals together.
