    Mediterranean Main Dishes

    Here you'll find many delicious Mediterranean main dishes for your everyday meal planning or for celebrations and parties. Many of these dishes are meatless and plant-based while others contain some kind of protein such as fish, chicken, beef etc.

    Some of the most popular, crowd-pleasing main courses are this Pastitsio recipe (Greek baked lasagna) with layers of pasta, ground beef sauce and bechamel, this roasted goat leg with potatoes which you can also make with lamb, and this Spanish white beans with chorizo sausage.
