I particularly liked the look of the spanakopita (spinach pie), the black eyed bean salad (you could use a can of cooked beans, to save time), the second greek salad, the stuffed zucchini (courgettes), the green beans in tomato sauce (have a peek at the second image..yummy!), the fried cauliflower and the aubergine croquettes - I haven't even looked at the desserts yet, either ! Ensure you have a supply of pitta breads and some psomi (a crusty Greek bread you should be able to get in a deli) or just some french sticks, sliced diagonally as well as Greek wines.
Have fun !
