Middle Eastern Cuisine

Had the opportunity to sample some lovely Middle Eastern food while visiting the Arab American National Museum in Dearborn, Michigan this weekend.  Looking forward to making some of these items at home in the near future.  Stay tuned!

Light and Tasty Eggplant Sandwiches

Try an eggplant sandwich next time you're looking for a light, tasty sandwich.

Start with hummus and pita bread.  Make your own hummus if you have time, but if you're in a hurry store-bought works well too.  Generously coat the inside of the pita with hummus.

Grill or broil eggplant that has been brushed with extra virgin olive oil.

Place the eggplant in the pita.  Top your sandwiches off with a spritz of lemon juice or some fresh yogurt and enjoy!
