How do you achieve a diet where plant-based foods outweigh meat? How do you take a meat-centric plate and shift things around so that vegetables take up the prominent place and meat plays a secondary role? And how do you take plant-based natural ingredients, such as nuts, and use them in a way that emulates the texture and craveability of meat? Diane and her son Yiorgos explore the geography of the dinner plate by recreating classic Greek recipes for meat with, well, less of it!

About My Greek Table with Diane Kochilas:

Hosted by chef, cookbook author and restaurateur Diane Kochilas, the 13-part culinary series MY GREEK TABLE WITH DIANE KOCHILAS celebrates Greek history and culture through food.

In the series, Diane travels throughout Greece and its surrounding islands where she showcases many of the foods that Greece is known for (olive oil, feta, honey, yogurt and more), while giving a snapshot of the country's traditions.

Then Diane heads back to her kitchen to whip up simple home-cooked meals using the ingredients she highlights in each episode, offering tips on how to cook and pair them in a traditional Greek meal.
