I WROTE A COOKBOOK

Insanely delicious and nourishing recipes, viral fan favorites, and vivid stories straight from Maria’s Greek family and life.

THE GOSS

  • The Real Thing

    As someone who was born and raised on the shores of the Mediterranean and has spent years cooking and writing about it, I know the real thing when I taste it. Maria’s Greek Out is the real thing. Her food has the kind of soul that could only come from a woman who has olive oil in her veins and a yiayia who taught her that food is love.

  • The Modern Food Bible

    Greek Out by Maria is pure joy. Her heritage, heart, and love of Greek cooking shine on every page, with stunning photography that transports you straight to Greece. From classic favorites like Spanakopita and Chicken Gyros to fresh, creative dishes, this book is both inspiring and deeply craveable. If you’re looking for a modern Greek food bible, this is it.

  • Gorgeous Photos

    In her debut cookbook, Maria proves that she has a true gift for creating recipes that transport you straight to the heart of Greece. Her versatile, flavor-packed recipes are as addictive as they are inspiring, and the gorgeous photos will make you excited to cook from it again and again.

  • This One’s a Total Keeper

    Maria has already taught me so much about Greek cooking—and Greek Out feels like getting all of her best, most-loved recipes in one very beautiful place. From perfectly fluffy homemade pita to juicy souvlaki and that cozy, tomato-y manestra, this book delivers on all fronts.
    It’s equal parts approachable and impressive, with the kind of unfussy, fresh ingredients that let the flavors really shine. Plus, the photography is unfairly gorgeous! Every page makes you want to drop everything, grab a bottle of olive oil, and start cooking. This one’s a total keeper.

  • Dream Vacation to Greece

    The stunningly beautiful pages of Greek Out are like a dream vacation to Greece expertly led by your Greek Mommy, Maria Koutsogiannis. She holds your hand while taking you on a tour of her favorite recipes, each one more delicious than the last, all while telling stories of her heritage and family. Excuse me while I apply more SPF, as I never want to leave….

  • It’s Alive and Vibrant

    Like a lively Sirtaki dance with fancy footwork, Maria’s work jumps off the pages of Greek Out! It’s alive and vibrant and original, but more than anything, it’s FUN! I especially loved the recipes that speak to our shared Greek-American soul, rooted in tradition but also new (her spicy feta stuffed shells will be my next dinner party dish!). Maria has created cutting-edge comfort food that happens to be Greek!
