Fattoush Salad
This Fattoush Salad recipe is a must try! An easy Middle Eastern chopped salad with loads of vegetables, a homemade lemon vinaigrette and toasted flatbread pieces.
I absolutely love Mediterranean food. In fact, it is my favorite nationality of food and I could eat it daily. When I go to a restaurant and see fattoush salad on a menu, 9 times out 10, I am going to order it. Something about the mix of vegetables, toasted pita and tangy dressing is so delicious to me.
A couple of weeks ago, my sister and I went out on a "sister date" and had dinner together. We ordered a fattoush salad and I had two thoughts: 1. This is delicious! 2. I want to recreate this at home. Luckily, I had all of the ingredients at home and made it for myself the very next day.
It turned out awesome and I would definitely make this fattoush salad recipe again! To make it more filling, you can add chickpeas or grilled chicken. You could also add a sprinkle of feta cheese in if you like!

For this recipe, I used my favorite flatbread from Flatout. I chose to use the 100% whole-wheat flatbreads which are fiber and vitamin rich. I love this brand because they taste great, are full of nutrients and they are made in Michigan. We love making sandwiches and wraps for lunch packed with all kinds of nutritious foods. I like to use them in uncommon type recipes such as my Pizza Panzanella Salad. To find out where you can buy Flatout wraps, check out their store locator.
