Greek Winter Stews

This is a live, interactive, hands-on cooking class held online via Zoom. See our event policies at the bottom of this webpage.

In this class we'll make two Greek classics, with a twist: spanakorizo, a rice and spinach dish traditionally served as a stew or a side, and avgolemono, a rich lemon and egg soup typically served with chicken, but adapted here with chickpeas. These dishes are healthy, warming, and hearty - perfect to keep you cozy in winter! Plus, leftovers will set you up for success as we head into the week!
