Perfect for you if...

  • You're drawn to Mediterranean flavours but tired of recipes calling for ingredients you can't find locally or afford.
  • You cook for gatherings and want dishes that feel special without requiring restaurant-level technique or obscure pantry items.
  • You care as much about how food looks on the plate as how it tastes, and you actually use the photographs in cookbooks as styling inspiration.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You prefer quick weeknight dinners over the kind of cooking that invites people round. These recipes are built for sharing, not solo eating.
  • You're gluten-free, dairy-free, or follow strict dietary restrictions. Kosmas Flores doesn't centre those needs in her cooking.
  • You want diet-focused or nutritional information spelled out. This is a celebration of seasonal abundance, not a health-focused cookbook.

About this book

Eva Kosmas Flores presents seasonal recipes that combine Mediterranean influences with the produce of the Pacific Northwest. Drawing on her Greek heritage and ingredients from her Oregon garden, she develops approachable dishes paired with photography. First We Eat features Kosmas Flores's photography style and serves as a reference for seasonal cooking. The book emphasizes the beauty of Pacific Northwest ingredients, Mediterranean-inspired preparations, and simple presentations suitable for sharing with friends and family.
