My Greek Family Table: Fresh, Regional Recipes by Maria Benardis is a re-release of the 2009 edition.

This book shares the stories of her summers cooking at her grandmother’s elbow on the Greek island of Psara, and places an emphasis on eating for health and well-being. As Maria says, “This book is as much about the importance of the family and friends who share our table as it is about food.” 

For more information on this cookbook, please see our review post, which shares a recipe for Lamb Filo Parcels.

We are pleased to offer five copies of this title to our EYB Members in the US and Canada. One of the entry options is to answer the following question in the comments section of this blog post.

Which recipe in the index would you like to try first?

Please note that you must be logged into the Rafflecopter contest before posting or your entry won’t be counted. If you are not already a Member, you can join at no cost. The contest ends at midnight on June 25th, 2017.
