Hummus

Pita

Method

Grilled Shrimp

  1. 1

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Thread the marinated shrimp onto skewers. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are opaque and cooked through.

Yellow Rice

  1. 3

    Cook the Rice

    In a saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add the long grain rice and stir for 2-3 minutes until lightly toasted. Add chicken broth, turmeric, and salt. Bring to a boil.

  2. 4

    Simmer the Rice

    Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid. Fluff with a fork before serving.

Mini Greek Salad

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salad

    In a large bowl, combine diced cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, pitted olives, and crumbled feta cheese.

  2. 6

    Dress the Salad

    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, and dried oregano. Pour over the salad and toss gently to combine.

Hummus

  1. 7

    Blend the Hummus

    In a food processor, combine drained chickpeas, tahini, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, water, and salt. Blend until smooth, adding more water if needed to reach the desired consistency.

  2. 8

    Serve the Hummus

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle with olive oil before serving.

Pita

  1. 9

    Warm the Pita

    Warm the pita bread in a toaster or on the grill for a couple of minutes until soft and pliable.
