Fatoosh

Fatoosh brings together crunchy baked pita with crisp romaine, juicy tomatoes, and cool cucumber, all lifted by a tangy sumac and lemon vinaigrette. Fresh parsley and mint add herbal brightness, while garlic and black pepper round out the flavor. Serve it as a lively lunch or side when you want something refreshing and textural.
