A Cretan snack of raw and cooked vegetables dressed with olive oil and lemon, finished with crumbled feta. The raw leaves stay crisp, the beans and artichokes give it some body, and the feta adds a salty, tangy note throughout. It comes together in minutes and is the kind of thing you eat standing at the counter when hunger hits between meals. #Greek #Mediterranean #vegetarian #snack #Cretan #light

A Cretan-style bean and vegetable plate eaten as a light mid-morning snack. Kidney beans, yellow snap beans, and boiled cabbage are dressed with olive oil, lemon, and oregano, with dried apricots and blueberries adding a gentle sweetness that's common in Aegean cooking. It's served at room temperature and sits well between breakfast and a main meal. #greek #mediterranean #beans #vegetables #snack #mezze
Dakos is a Cretan meze of hard barley rusks softened with ripe tomato and topped with feta, olives, and oregano. It's salty, a little tangy, and satisfying without being heavy. Greeks eat it as a mid-morning snack or light lunch, especially in summer when tomatoes are at their best. #greek #cretan #mediterranean #vegetarian #snack #breakfast
