"Fattoush is one of the most well-known Middle Eastern salads and a standard dish on the 'mezza' (small dishes) table. It's a colorful tossed salad with a lemony garlic dressing, and if you've never made a single Arabic dish, this is a delicious and healthy place to start."

  1. This looks really nice, I like toasted pita bread very much. Guess I will add more pita bread. And maybe some honey, I like honey in salad. :)
