End-of-Summer Lebanese Recipes
I’m making my list of recipes for this bountiful end-of-summer weekend! Here’s what’s cooking:
Blueberry Cobbler. Read here about why it means so much to me.
Watermelon bites. So cute! So delicious.
Baba gannouj, smokey eggplant dip. Serve your baba with pita chips and veggies to tide them over.
Tabbouleh salad. Perfect with any and all grilled food! Make it with bulgur, or cooked quinoa for a gluten-free option.
Grilled Shish Kebab. Use lamb, beef, or chicken. Or skip the meat like my brother would, and go all veggie!
Kofta burgers, ready to grill. Ultra-flavorful and delicious.
Lebanese potato salad. Lemony, minted, fresh.
Fatayar, our blessed little pies. Try them with spinach, zucchini, or meat.
Raspberry Rose Crumb Cake. Make it now and freeze for a weekend breakfast.
Apricot tart, how do I love thee!
Fresh Mint Lemonade, to wash it all down.

impressive and beautifully arranged and photographed… I like to read the stories you write which accompany your delicious recipes… Best of times to summer 2017 ending… My plan is to make your blueberry cobbler, at least one, if not many more times this weekend!
Thank you Elaine! That cobbler is perfect this weekend–enjoy!
Hi Maureen,
I am going to make your kabobs with beef instead of lamb so should I buy a 2lb chuck roast and cut it into cubes?
Also, for the Kafta burgers- should I use 80% ground beef if I don’t want to use lamb?
Thanks! Love your recipes and cookbook!
Oh my gosh Maureen, this post is so wonderful. Your list reminds me of so many fun times with family. <3
