Mezzes are an ancient custom of small dishes served to express hospitality. They are similar to appetizers but more substantial. Mezzes could be as simple as a cup of Greek coffee with a cookie, or they can provide a complete meal. There are no real rules for mezze dishes - they are limited only by the cook’s imagination. But equally as important as the food - is the practice of socializing around the table. This book is filled with traditional and new meatless recipes. Each was created using plants and superfoods that were kitchen tested and approved by family members and friends.
