Project Parsley

[Maya's Mama]

Parsley is one of my favorite herbs when fresh. For many reasons, it's good cooked, or fresh, as a garnish or as the main event. More importantly parsley is widely available. Pretty inexpensive and always in stock.
Today I made the classic Greek Maidanosalata (Greek Parsley Spread).
In order to make the best dish one must start with the freshest ingredients.

A quick run in my food processor and presto!


Served with pita chips (which is just pita bread cut into wedges and toasted in my cast iron skillet). It's a delicious and nutritious evening snack.

How do you like your parsley?

Hmm, that looks really good! I love the green color. Does it taste similar to pesto?
