Healthy Greek Eats Challenge Winner!

I’m so excited to share with you all that I won the Healthy Greek Eats blogger challenge!

HGE Blogger Challenge Trio

Healthy Greek Eats is an Orlando-based brand that offers a selection of traditional Greek meze, including tzatziki, a variety of hummus flavors, spicy feta dip, grape leaves and authentic Greek yogurt.  All of their products are vegetarian and gluten-free (yay!) and many are vegan, too.

They sponsored an Orlando food blogger challenge last month, where we were tasked to create three recipes incorporating one of their products: hummus, tzatziki and Greek yogurt.

For the Hummus Challenge I created my Hummus & Roasted Veggie Pizza.  Full of different flavors and textures, it was really delicious!  I also experimented with two different gluten-free doughs.

For the Tzatziki Challenge, I created Mediterranean-style Greek Burgers with Tzatziki.  I grilled red onions for a neat texture and added peppery arugula, fresh tomato, melted feta and fresh mint to complement the creamy tzatiki.

And for the final Greek Yogurt Challenge, I made a Halloween-themed Pumpkin Pie Smoothie.  It took a few tries to get this one right, but I ended up with a deliciously creamy smoothie with the perfect hint of pumpkin.  This recipe actually won for the Week 3 challenge, too!

It was a super fun contest and I had a great time making the recipes and taking the photos.  To purchase any of the Healthy Greek Eats products, you can visit The Meat House in Winter Park.  Or for more retail locations, visit healthygreekeats.com.

What are your favorite Greek ingredients?  How do you incorporate them into your recipes?

Hugs, kisses & yummy dishes… xoxo
