Fattoush is a vibrant Middle Eastern salad originating from Levantine cuisine. It typically includes a mix of fresh vegetables like cucumbers, tomatoes, lettuce, radishes, and parsley, tossed with crisped pieces of pita bread for added texture. The dressing is a tangy blend of olive oil, lemon juice, and sumac, a distinctive spice that offers a citrusy flavor. Fattoush is rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants from its fresh ingredients, making it a heart-healthy choice that supports digestion and overall wellness. Olive oil provides beneficial fats, while the use of lemon and sumac adds flavor without reliance on heavy or processed ingredients. However, the fried pita bread can add extra calories and fats, so opting for baked pita can make it even healthier. This refreshing dish is a staple in Mediterranean diets and is perfect for those seeking a light yet nourishing meal.
