What makes Mediterranean food distinctive?

Vegetables, legumes, fish, olive oil, fresh herbs – these are the foundations of Mediterranean eating. It’s widely recognised for its positive effect on health, vitality and mental wellbeing. 

A key reason this cuisine has won over nutrition professionals and everyday eaters is its positive effect on health. Studies show that the Mediterranean diet can help reduce the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity and some forms of cancer. The benefits are mainly linked to olive oil, regular fish consumption, fruit and vegetables, including fresh herbs. It can also contribute to improved mental wellbeing and overall vitality.^1,2,3

Simply Greek – a brand with the spirit of the Aegean Sea 

The company began as a family initiative, with a focus on quality ingredients, craft production and minimal processing. The aim is to introduce more people to what Greeks serve on their tables every day. No artificial additives, no compromises. Clean ingredients, bold flavours – from olive tapenades to smooth hummus, made with tomatoes, aubergine or beetroot.

The products are made in small batches, using local ingredients from local farmers, with care in every detail. The flavours bring to mind a seaside taverna – just without the cooking. They stick firmly to the rule of “as little processing as possible”, which shows not only in taste, but also in what it gives your body.

What people eat in Greece – a culture of shared tables

Greeks live through food – and Simply Greek shows that food can be an experience here, too. The meze concept – shared small plates – works brilliantly for a celebration at home, an evening with friends or a quick supper. Set out a few small bowls, add fresh bread or pitta breads, top up with olives and cheese, and you have an authentic Mediterranean feast that everyone can enjoy. This approach to eating isn’t only a cultural tradition, but also a route to a more contented life.

Ideas for a Simply Greek spread, or quick savoury nibbles:

• Mini plates: hummus + tzatziki + beetroot spread with veg
• Dinner for two: tapenade, feta, pitta bread and white wine
• A spread for friends: 4–5 dips, olives, cheese, grilled meat or falafel

Simply Greek helps bring food back to its real purpose – bringing people together. In a busy world, it reminds us that it’s the moments shared around the table that we remember most.

Healthy snacks for kids? No compromises

Parents look for snacks that will taste good and do some good. Simply Greek shows that even with kids’ snacks, there’s no need to compromise between taste, health and convenience. You get practical packaging, clean ingredients with no chemical additives and flavours that suit younger palates. Snacks can be balanced, healthy and easy to take to school or on a trip. It’s simple enough that kids can put them together themselves. And importantly – they pick up better habits early on.

Favourite combinations? 

• Smooth hummus with pitta bread cut into strips, easy to eat in the car or in the changing room before an after-school club.
• A lunchbox with fresh carrots, pepper and cucumber, finished with a herby yoghurt dip.
• Black olive pâté, which pairs well with wholegrain crackers.

Thanks to easy packing and clean ingredients, they’re great for trips, school and after-school clubs.

Modern lifestyles call for quick, healthy and tasty solutions. Whether we’re heading out for a full day trip with the family, putting together a quick lunch for work or planning a picnic in the park, we need options that are practical, healthy and still good to eat.

Simply Greek shows that healthy food doesn’t have to be limited to the home kitchen. A few good ingredients and a little creativity – and Greek sunshine can turn up in the office or on a mountain walk.

Ingredients – what do (and don’t) Simply Greek products contain?

When you compare the ingredients in Simply Greek with typical supermarket products, the difference is clear at a glance. Instead of sugar and stabilisers, you’ll find olive oil; instead of cheap substitutes, chickpeas, good tomatoes or proper garlic. All in a simple ingredients list that’s easy to read, even if you’re not an expert.

Thanks to traditional techniques such as fermentation or slow cooking, the products keep not only excellent flavour, but also as many nutrients as possible. Whether it’s smooth hummus or a bolder tapenade, you can be confident you’re eating real food – not empty calories and chemicals.

• No artificial preservatives, colourings or GMOs.
• Rich in olive oil, legumes, vegetables.
• Naturally gluten-free, appropriate for vegetarians and vegans.

Simply Greek isn’t only about taste, but also about a responsible approach to the body and nature.

Whether you’re looking for a healthy snack for kids, something good to take on the go or a way to lift a simple dinner at home, Simply Greek offers options you can rely on.

The key is a mix of authentic ingredients, honest production and stylish presentation. The products are practical, but not ordinary. Full of flavour, while still light and balanced.
