Fattoush Salad

Ingredients: Makes 4 servings

1 1/2 ounces whole wheat pita bread
1 teaspoon canola oil
2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon ground sumac*
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
3 1/2 ounces diced cucumbers
2 ounces grape tomatoes, halved
1/2 ounce red onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons freshly chopped parsley
2 teaspoons freshly chopped mint
1 1/2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a sheet pan with cooking spray.
2. Cut pita into 1” wedges and toss with canola oil. Bake until golden brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Allow pita to cool and break into smaller pieces.
3. Meanwhile, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, sumac, salt and pepper.
4. When ready to serve, combine crisp pita, cucumber, tomato, onion, parsley, mint, and feta in a large bowl. Drizzle with dressing and toss until well-coated.

*If you are not able to find sumac, suggest to use lemon pepper seasoning.
