Lebanese

Fattoush
A Levantine salad of crisp toasted pita and crunchy vegetables tossed in a tangy sumac dressing. Loaded with cucumber, tomato, radish, and herbs, it is bright and fresh — a Mediterranean healthy classic that puts leftover bread to good use.

Chicken Shawarma
A Middle Eastern favorite — chicken marinated in yogurt and warm spices, roasted until charred and juicy, then thinly sliced. Traditionally cut from a vertical spit, but easy at home in a pan or oven. Wrap it in pita with garlic sauce, or serve over rice.

Baba Ghanoush (Smoky Eggplant Dip)
A Middle Eastern eggplant dip: eggplant charred until smoky, then mashed with tahini, lemon, and garlic. A cousin of hummus, perfect scooped up with pita or vegetables.

Tabbouleh (Parsley Salad)
A Lebanese herb salad of chopped parsley with bulgur, tomato, and mint, dressed in lemon and olive oil. A bright, healthy no-cook dish that pairs perfectly with mezze like hummus and falafel.

Hummus (Middle Eastern Chickpea Dip)
A classic Middle Eastern dip of chickpeas blended smooth with tahini, lemon, and garlic. Creamy, nutty, and tangy, it's drizzled with olive oil and scooped up with pita. A mezze staple loved across Lebanon and the wider Middle East and Mediterranean.
