Greece, August, Chalkidiki, and a Greek-Style Frittata
In this episode, I’m cooking a frittata with a Greek twist — and sharing a few glimpses from my trip to beautiful Chalkidiki. Stay with me until the end to catch one of the most breathtaking sunsets you’ll ever see (second only to Santorini’s magic).

Chalkidiki — Nowhere Like It
Greeks have a saying about Chalkidiki: “Nowhere like Chalkidiki.” And honestly? They’re not wrong.
In my previous episode, I talked about Sarti — the seaside village where we stayed. Gorgeous, isn’t it? There we were, diving into the hotel pool with Sarti’s stunning beach stretching out before us. We left with nothing but warm memories and sun-soaked smiles from our time there.
A Simple & Delicious Greek-Style Frittata
Now, let’s get cooking. This frittata is wonderfully simple and endlessly adaptable — you can use whatever ingredients you love.
Heat 2 tablespoons of Greek extra virgin olive oil in a cast-iron skillet (or any oven-safe skillet).
Add the chopped onion and sauté until soft and translucent. Then, toss in the mushrooms.
While they cook over medium heat, prepare your egg mixture: whisk together 4 whole eggs, 2 spoonfuls of Greek yogurt, salt, and black pepper.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it cook gently — but not all the way through.
Add the chopped spinach and dill, then top with tomato slices and crumbled feta. A sprinkle of oregano wouldn’t hurt, either.
Transfer the skillet to a preheated oven and bake for just a few minutes until set.
Serving & Enjoying
The frittata is now ready! I love serving it as a special weekend breakfast or a relaxed brunch. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, slice, and enjoy. Honestly, I could finish the whole thing by myself.
