NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The highly anticipated debut cookbook from the creator of The Mediterranean Dish website, with more than 120 recipes for bright and flavorful Mediterranean diet-inspired meals.

“I want to cook everything in this book! It’s not just beautiful—the recipes are fresh and exciting.”—Gina Homolka, New York Times bestselling author of the Skinnytaste cookbooks

What began as one of the first online Mediterranean food blogs has blossomed into the leading site for modern Mediterranean cooking and lifestyle with millions of readers—and now it is the inspiration for the long-awaited first cookbook from Suzy Karadsheh. In her cookbook, Suzy brings cross-culturally inspired dishes from throughout the Mediterranean into American home kitchens, using easy-to-find ingredients and easy-to-follow, tested-to-perfection recipes to make your meals more vibrant, delicious, and yes—even a little healthier, too!  
 
Born and raised by the sea in Port Said, Egypt, Suzy lived in Michigan and Des Moines with her family before moving to Atlanta, where she now lives. Her modern cooking reflects the rich and complex traditions of the Mediterranean and Middle East, from Greece and southern Spain to Jordan and Tunisia, as well as inspiration from her new Southern roots. Practical and weeknight-easy recipes include: Spanakopita Egg Muffins, Chicken Shawarma Bowls, Garlicky Spinach and Chickpea Soup with Lemon and Pecorino Romano, Roasted Asparagus Salad with Cherry Tomatoes and Basil, Middle Eastern Rice Pilaf with Toasted Vermicelli and Pine Nuts, Orange-Cardamom Olive Oil Cake, and of course Homemade Pita Bread to serve with just about everything. 
 
Suzy’s winning combination of approachable instructions, reliable recipes, stunning photography, charming authentic stories, and simple assemblies is sure to thrill anyone hungry to eat healthier food that bursts with flavor and spice.

Title: So great I bought a second copy
Review: Since my first review of this book, I have served many of the recipes at parties and gatherings. EVERYONE loved the food and clamored for the recipes. All were super easy to make, flavorful, and visually stunning. I just purchased a copy to gift. (Recipes served were Muhamara, tomato pomegranate salsa, marinated chickpeas, hummus).

Title: Mostly Egyptian recipes, vibrant food photos
Review: I think a sign of a good cookbook is if when you are looking thru it you immediately see a ton of recipes you want to make. To me this book falls into that category. You can't help but notice the vibrant eye catching colorful photos. I enjoyed reading the authors touching tribute to her father and the positive influence he had on her in regards to learning how to cook. I have made about 5 or so recipes from this book but will definitely try more. The first I had to try was the frothy mint limonada. Let me tell you that drink was amazing. It was so refreshing that I try to make it several times a week. The roasted bell pepper boats were delicious. The combo of the orzo, peppers and basil vinaigrette was one of the healthiest lunches I ever made. My father who is from Italy gobbled it up. And I can't forget that glorious orange cardamom olive oil cake. It was so good. Thanks to her wonderful easy to follow directions it came out perfect and I am not a good baker. The reason I did not give this book 5 stars is many of the recipes appear to be time consuming, some you need to make 2 other recipes to complete the recipe you are making. If you are not a fan of cooking with olive oil, mint, or looking to purchase middle eastern spices this book might not work for you. Many of the recipes I would never make like lobster, etc. It would have been nice to see more Italian, Greek recipes. It seems to be mostly Egyptian dishes. There is no nutritional content and not every recipe has a photo. I really do like this cook book though and it will challenge me in the kitchen.

Review: I’m a chef & I have an extensive collection of cookbooks. I have never found a cookbook that has so many great recipes in it. I’ve made about 8 or 9 recipes from this book so far & every one of them has been really delicious. They’re simple, healthy & loaded with tremendous flavour. I highly recommend this book.
