#Mediterranean #Fattoush #Vegetarian
Fattoush is a Lebanese salad made with vegetables and crispy toasted flatbread (Pita Bread) , which soaks up the dressing beautifully. It’s a simple recipe, packed with freshness and flavor – serve this salad as a side to grilled meats. This Fattoush salad is all about sourness. The combination of lemon and sumac really packs a punch. Great with a barbecue.
