Garlic

Fattoush in Arabic means crumble, or crumbs, and is an example of frugality in cooking across the globe. Authentic versions in restaurants include lettuce, tomato, cucumber, radishes, green onions and parsley, but in home kitchens, the salad is a blend of leftover vegetables, tied together with a bright dressing and topped at the last minute with crisped pita pieces. We add canned chickpeas to this multi-textured salad to make it a main dish. Time saver: Use pre-made pita chips.
