Fattoush
Most likely originally developed to use up stale bread, this delicious Mediterranean salad is a hearty alternative to most other and unfortunately all too often unsatisfying salads.
Serve it with a nice grilled fish or marinated chicken and you have a complete and also very healthy meal.
Fattoush is a popular salad throughout the Middle East. It’s a popular treat during the Ramadan months in Jordan and also a popular side to shawarma and kebabs.
Enjoy!
