Squid with greens
Squid with greens is a delicious and nutritious recipe that the monks usually make here in Mount Athos during fasting days. Squid or calamari is a food that could not be missing from our recipes as it is rich in proteins, which are essential for our body because we never eat meat. Try this unique recipe step by step and be amazed by its incredible taste.

At the same time, we cut the onions into thick pieces.
We save them.
We cut the garlic into thick pieces and throw them in as well.
Then, we add the squids with their juice.

At the same time, while we wait for the squid to boil, we have boiled our greens.
We drain them well.
We also add these to the squid.
We add the lemon juice and pepper.
