@foodbymaria: I cooked this recipe on the Food Network 🥇 Find the full recipe linked in my bio! So many of you have asked if there will be fan favourites or viral recipes in the cookbook, and the answer is ABSOLUTELY yes! 85% of the cookbook is brand new and never-before-seen, but the other 15% is made up of the recipes you've loved and cherished over the years, including this family heirloom. Welcome back to Episode 7 of Summer in Greece! Today, I'm making the holy grail of Greek comfort food: Makaronia Me Kima (Greek Meat Sauce). My mom taught me this recipe, just as it was passed down to her. It's a piece of my family's story in every bite. More than the incredible combination of cinnamon, clove, and allspice that makes this sauce unforgettable, this recipe represents everything I learned growing up around our table. It's where I learned that food is how we celebrate, comfort, remember, and love one another. When I sat down to write GREEK OUT, I knew these were the recipes I wanted to preserve. Not just because they're delicious, but because they're family heirlooms. Every page is filled with the traditions, lessons, and recipes that were entrusted to me, and now I get to pass them on to you. Us Greeks? Yeah... we just do it better. 🇬🇷 #greece #greekfood #greekrecipes #makaroniamekima
