Fresh Mint Hummus

By Maureen Abood On May 23, 2018 · 4 Comments · In Gluten-Free, Grains and Legumes, Maza, Appetizers and Dips, Stories and Recipes, Summer, Vegan, Vegetables, Vegetarian
Fresh Mint Hummus is so fresh and flavorful, we may not ever eat hummus any other way…. Use the same simple hummus ingredients of skinless chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, and tahini with a big handful of fresh mint and basil for a hummus that tastes as beautiful as it looks. Finish fresh mint hummus with [...]

Chickpea and Feta Picnic Salad

By Maureen Abood On May 25, 2016 · 25 Comments · In Gluten-Free, Grains and Legumes, Salads, Summer, Vegetables, Vegetarian
I’m not entirely sure why, but when Dan asked me in the most complimentary way to “master” the chickpea salad he’d eaten at Woody’s, our local favorite for Lebanese, I didn’t exactly jump all over it. The poor guy—he’s been casually slipping his simple request into conversation wherever it fits. I mention cooking up some [...]

Seared Lamb Chops with Mint Salt Dry Rub

By Maureen Abood On March 21, 2016 · 20 Comments · In Chicken, Fish, Beef, Lamb, Easter, Gluten-Free, Your Favorites
The funny thing is, I wasn’t even thinking meat rub when I came up with the Mint Salt idea. The goal was to make any food, especially salads and vegetables, taste authentically Lebanese, not to mention out-of-this-world fresh and delicious, with one pinch of the fingertips in a spice tin. Brainstorming what to call this [...]

Fresh Herb Falafel Pita Wrap

By Maureen Abood On August 28, 2015 · 17 Comments · In Grains and Legumes, Maza, Appetizers and Dips, Summer, Vegetables, Vegetarian
Mother never made that. That’s what mom’s sister, Aunt Pat, said when I talked about the falafel I’d be making with the abundance of fresh herbs we have, along with the peeled fava beans we recently started offering over at Maureen Abood Market. The sisters have been engaged in a dialogue, one that has extended [...]

Lebanese Panzanella Salad

By Maureen Abood On August 13, 2015 · 24 Comments · In Salads, Summer, Vegan, Vegetables, Vegetarian
Pita chips replace the traditional Italian-style croutons in this Lebanese Panzanella salad. They soak up the precious juice we wouldn’t even consider leaving behind. The mix of lemon with rice vinegar gives the sweet tomatoes the perfect pop of tartness we love so much. Sometimes I think that the whole purpose I am here, back [...]

Your go-to summer dip: Labneh with Garlic and Herbs

By Maureen Abood On May 27, 2015 · 19 Comments · In Maza, Appetizers and Dips, Vegetarian, Yogurt, Labneh and Laban
Part of the fun, and good work, of sharing my new Lebanese cookbook with the world is doing interviews (and—thankfully—lots of them). Today, this Very Big Deal was published in The New York Times! Among the many questions that get asked in these interviews, I’ve always been unnecessarily prepared for one of the sort Bon [...]

Cucumber Bites with Labneh and Olives

By Maureen Abood On February 22, 2015 · 6 Comments · In Gluten-Free, Maza, Appetizers and Dips, Vegetables, Vegetarian, Yogurt, Labneh and Laban
When Oscar time rolled around back when I was living in Chicago, I took it as a great excuse to eat a bunch of rich food and drink wine, while lounging in sweats, with my favorite pals. I always pulled out the stops not with Lebanese recipes, but what I considered Oscar-worthy guacamole. I like [...]

Tomato Cucumber Salad with Avocado and Feta

By Maureen Abood On October 24, 2014 · 6 Comments · In Gluten-Free, Salads, Stories and Recipes, Vegetables, Vegetarian
The changing of the seasons here in Michigan has been doing its thing in recent months without much ado from me. Typically I get all wound up in it, embracing and letting go with deep emotion, as if the seasons were my children, flowering and then moving on without me. I’m sort of surprised, and [...]

Grilled Corn Salad with Mint and Feta Recipe

By Maureen Abood On July 11, 2014 · 19 Comments · In Salads, Stories and Recipes
The truth is that even though Dan and I are newlyweds, it is summer up north in Michigan. This is where I do most of my work. His work, however, is downstate. So when all of the festivities of wedding and family took their leave this past week, so did he. By the end of [...]
