Fattoush Pita Bread Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven 400ºF
• Cut the bread into small (1 inch) pieces, place on a baking tray and toast in the oven for 5-10 minutes until crisp and light brown.
• In a large bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, green peppers, red peppers, cucumber, spring onions, garlic, parsley and mint.
• Toss with the lemon juice and olive oil. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Now add the toasted bread and mix well.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place pita bread on a baking sheet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the bread is a light brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool, 1 to 2 minutes. Break toasted bread into bite-size pieces.
• Combine lettuce, radishes, cucumber, tomato, garlic, green onions, parsley, mint, and salt and pepper together in a bowl; toss until salad is well mixed.
• Pour lemon juice, olive oil, and sumac into a salad dressing bottle with a lid; cover and shake until blended. Add dressing to salad and toss.
• Garnish salad with toasted pita.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Slice the pitas in half to make 4 thin rounds. Place the pitas on a nonstick sheet pan. Brush with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt.
• Bake for about 5 minutes, until the outside is golden brown. Let cool until they become crispy.
• Make 3 cuts lengthwise on each of the romaine hearts, remove the stems, and chop into smaller pieces. Rinse, drain, and add to a large salad bowl.
• Seed the cucumber, dice it, and add it to the salad bowl.
• Cut the tomatoes in half and add them to the salad bowl.
• Mince the scallions and add them to the salad bowl.
• Add the radishes, bell pepper, parsley, and mint to the salad bowl and toss to combine.
• In a liquid measuring cup or small bowl, combine the remaining ½ cup (120 ml) of oil, the lemon juice, white wine vinegar, garlic, sumac, allspice, salt, and pepper and whisk until well-combined.
• Pour the dressing over the salad.
• Break the crispy pitas into small pieces and add to the salad. Toss well.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Heat grapeseed oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Cook and stir pita bread pieces in hot oil until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer bread pieces to a paper-towel lined plate.
• Stir romaine lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber, feta cheese, mint, and parsley together in a large bowl.
• Whisk olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, Greek seasoning, sumac, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl until completely combined. Pour olive oil mixture and pita bread pieces into lettuce mixture; toss to coat.

Steps:

• Put diced and chopped vegetables into a bowl, cover and chill until shortly before serving time.
• Combine lemon juice, oil, garlic, salt and pepper and pour over the vegetables.
• Toast pita bread under the grill - it should be pale gold in colour, not brown.
• Break into large pieces and toss into salad at last minute, so it will still be crisp when eaten.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Separate pita into 2 rounds, and bake on cookie sheet for about 5 minutes, or until very crisp but not browned.
• Put tomato, red onion, peppers, cucumber, radishes and scallions into large salad bowl. Add romaine or purslane and fresh mint, and sprinkle with sumac and dried mint. Toss.
• Whisk together garlic, olive oil, lemon juice, pomegranate syrup, and salt and pepper in a small bowl. Just before serving, give dressing another quick whisk and then pour it over vegetables and toss.
• Break pita into 1-inch pieces and toss with salad, just before taking salad to table. Taste, add seasonings if needed, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Whisk together in a non-reactive bowl the olive oil, lemon juice, sumac and black pepper. Set aside.
• Dice the lemon cucumbers. (If using English cucumber, peel then dice.) Chop the scallions and mix the cucumbers, scallions and tomatoes together in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and allow to stand 10 minutes.
• Toast the bread until lightly browned then cool. Once cool enough to handle, break the bread up into 1 inch pieces and place in a serving bowl or platter.
• Cover the bread with the cucumber/tomato mixture and let stand 10 minutes to allow the bread to absorb the juices.
• Chop the romaine lettuce, parsley and mint. Strip the purslane leaves from the stalks. Stir the herbs into the salad.
• Pour the vinaigrette over the salad and serve immediately.
• NOTE: DO NOT prepare the salad in advance. If the salad is prepared too soon it will turn soggy. Best eaten the same day it is prepared.
