Quick Summer Mezze Plate
Savoring Summer...one bite at a time.
August is around the corner and I have no idea where this summer has gone, lol. With being primarily homebound these day, it’s feeling a little like Groundhog’s Day in my neck of the woods, what about you?
This Summer Mezze Plate is a small, but delightful way we’ve been savoring the summer while still being in our home work bubbles. This dish is also quick, light, versatile, easy :)---and of course delicious. Therefore, it's one of my favorite lunches right now….especially when I get a chance to enjoy outside for a few minutes. So whether you're flying solo or are looking for ideas to feed the whole family, this one is winner in my book.
Summer Mezze Plate
This Summer Mezze Plate has a few basic components, all of which in my kitchen are changeable :). Here are few tips and ideas...
Hummus - store bought or homemade, a container of this and you’re set for a few great weekday lunches. And if you like making hummus, I personally like changing up the beans I use. I've tried navy beans, black beans and even yellow mung dal!
Fresh Veggies - my faves right now are tomatoes and cucumbers, but sauerkraut also works well, too. I also like zucchini, avocado and carrots.
Crackers - I personally like rice crackers, but whatever you love works
Salt & Pepper - a pinch of both on the veggies makes the flavor pop even more
Olive Oil + Feta - top off your plate with a little dash of olive oil and a crumble of feta and you’ll feel like you just went out for lunch. 🙂
I'd love to hear how you change up this dish, so please leave a comment below!
Hope you’re staying healthy, safe and hydrated.
