Vol-au-vent-fillings/8 recipes

Milopita ( Greek Apple Pastry ) recipe

Greek flavor perfectly matched each other. I drizzled a splash of high-quality extra-virgin olive oil just before serving.

Strawberry and rhubarb are a great pair. I remember my Mom making this juicy, sweet and tangy flakey strawberry rhubarb pie; and every year when the strawberry season comes we revisit fond memories. :)

What an easy and tasty dish! Don't forget to let the breasts rest for about 10 minutes after you take them out of the oven, which ensures that all the delicious juices are secured inside the breasts. The roasted veggies were also very flavourful. Definitely a wholesome meal.
