About Egg and cheese manakeesh

Egg and Cheese Manakeesh is a savory flatbread dish originating from Levantine cuisine, commonly enjoyed in countries like Lebanon, Syria, and Jordan. This popular breakfast item features a soft, thin dough topped with a blend of melted cheese, often a mix of Akkawi or mozzarella, and a freshly cracked egg baked until golden. The combination creates a rich and satisfying flavor profile. Nutritionally, the dish provides a good source of protein and calcium from the cheese and egg, supporting bone health and muscle growth. The flatbread offers essential carbohydrates for energy, though it may be high in refined flour depending on preparation. Traditional recipes can also be high in sodium due to the cheese and may contain saturated fats, so moderation is key. Pairing it with fresh vegetables or herbs makes it a balanced option for a hearty breakfast or snack in Mediterranean-inspired meals.
