FATTOUSH

Now popular throughout the Middle East, fattoush first originated in Lebanon as a way to repurpose leftover bread. The fresh ingredients can vary, but they commonly include lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, radishes, and herbs like parsley or mint. Red and green onions are frequent additions as well.

HOW TO MAKE IT:

• Start building the fattoush salad by adding all the chopped ingredients to a large bowl.
• Pour the dressing on top.
• Toss everything to combine well. But keep the pita bread on the side so that it can be added when served to stay crisp.

I love fattoush so much it’s like ten thousand new flavors enter your mouth! It’s sour, sweet, and just tasty overall.
