We were recently in Greece for 3 weeks. Food I never saw: hummus, stuffed grape leaves, lettuce in Greek Salad or baklava; I don’t recall seeing Spanakopita but I think we might have had it once and it wasn’t at all like how we eat it. Notably, the olives, tzatziki and real Greek salad were absolutely to die for (and so much better than what I’ve eaten here).

Where do you live? Mediterranean Bakery in Alexandria has a great selection of apps.

Just wondering if you are Greek or does the school randomly assign the contributions.

You make them yourself. Just do a Greek platter. Really simple. https://alekasgettogether.com/the-ultimate-greek-meze-platter/

Grape leaves! Most grocery stores have them, but if you have a middle Eastern market near you, they might, too.
