My Own OMG Plates

Having experienced the joy of crafting my own Oh My Greek Plates, I can attest to how easy and delightful it is to create a scrumptious Greek meal with so many tasty choices at hand.

My first OMG Plate includes a gyro rice base— shredded grilled chicken on a bed of fragrant OMG cilantro-infused rice. The beef souvlaki added a savory punch, while the Greek chicken wings, with their tantalizing OMG Secret Sauce, were a true delight. To balance the flavors, I chose Honey & Cinnamon Loukoumades, bite-sized Greek donuts with a delicious combination of sweetness and spice, along with a refreshing OMG cucumber yogurt freeze.

For my second OMG Plate, I ventured into the depths of the sea with a calamari rice base. The chicken souvlaki and beef kofta added a tantalizing mix of flavors. The Chocolate & Almonds Loukoumades, garnished with chocolate and almonds, were a sweet note to end the meal, complemented by a refreshing iced tea.
