ohmygoodness - Greek dinner

This poor wee blog has been neglected lately.

Tonight, I'm here to share our meal from this evening's dinner.  I call this meal a home run.

Links aplenty ahead!

I was craving roasted chicken tonight.  It helped that it was chilly and rainy today.  I found this:

Holy COW was this good!  Simple and tasty.

I served it with my Greek Salad (which always gets good reviews), this tzatziki recipe (which is my go-to standard and oh-so-delicious) and a pita bread recipe from this cookbook (which I have on my Kindle).

*Then* I whipped up a peach strawberry sangria recipe on my own.  Yummy.

dice two peaches and about 8 strawberries.  Toss with a tbsp of sugar, then add:
3/4 cup peach schnapps
1/4 cup triple sec
(approx)

Chill for 2 hours minimum. Then add one bottle of pinot grigo and marinate longer in the fridge.

Serve with club soda, at about a 1:1 ratio with alcohol.  Delicious!
