About Qarish cheese with tomatoes

Qarish Cheese with Tomatoes is a traditional Middle Eastern dish featuring fresh, crumbly Qarish cheese paired with juicy, ripe tomatoes. Originating from Levantine cuisine, this simple yet flavorful combination is a staple in many households, often enjoyed as a breakfast or light snack. Qarish cheese is a soft, low-sodium, and low-fat cheese made from cow’s milk, making it a heart-friendly option rich in protein and calcium, essential for bone health. Tomatoes bring in their vibrant color and offer a wealth of vitamins A, C, and antioxidants like lycopene, which support immune function and protect against cellular damage. The dish is typically seasoned with olive oil, a drizzle of lemon juice, fresh herbs like parsley, and a pinch of salt for a bright, refreshing flavor. While highly nutritious, moderation is key due to the addition of salt and any oil used.
