AGAPE Cooking with Love: A Greek-American Family Heritage Cookbook, by Maria Lynn Kyrkostas, is now available in hardcover, paperback, and Kindle editions.

More than a collection of recipes, AGAPE Cooking with Love is an invitation to bring fam­ilies back to the kitchen and the table – building family memories one meal at a time by cooking with your family, not only for your fam­ily. Inspired by generations of Greek and Greek-American family tradition, the book celebrates au­thentic Mediterranean recipes and home-cooked meals made from scratch, together with the stories, culture, heritage and love sur­rounding the family table.

AGAPE means love, and that is at the heart of Maria’s message: meal prep can create connection. At a time when families are often moving in different directions, Maria encourages parents, grand­parents, children and grandchil­dren to come into the kitchen together – preparing a meal, learning a treasured family recipe, sharing stories, and creating traditions that can be carried forward for generations. “Cooking with your family, not only for your family, creates memories that last long after the meal is over,” says Kyrkostas. “Build the connection. Build the culture. Share the AGAPE.”
