Ceviche. One of my favorite meals to have - refreshing on a warm day, satisfying but not filling, incredibly healthy and tasty - a beautiful explosion of flavors in every bite. Below is my recipe, but the beauty of ceviche is that it's incredibly flexible you can make your own by creating the flavor profile you want. I've included some thoughts in optionals below to spur your creative juices! Make ahead for an easy weeknight dinner the next day. Ingredients
Preparation
As they say in my country, Buen Provecho!

This is remarkably versatile - I used quinoa, radishes, green onions, grape tomatoes and jalapeños to complete this amazing charred broccoli, but you can use any grain and add any veggies you may like. I also included SoftBoiled Eggs as it's delicious to break that yolk into the bowl! I've included only the instructions for the dressing and Charred Broccoli to let you flex as wanted - would definitely include an Ancient Grain, and some crunchy veggies as you enjoy the most! Dressing
Instructions: Whisk lemon juice, garlic and salt. Let sit for 1 minute, then whisk in oil in steady stream, until emulsified. Is using, whisk in tahini and set aside. Charred Broccoli

Serve in bowl with all the crunchy veggies, soft-boiled egg, etc. As they say in my country, Buen Provecho! This salad is a perfect, ultra-healthy and quick way to get rid of summer garden vegetables! It combines the flavors of the Mediterranean with a staple of every summer farmer's market or garden! Endlessly flexible, you can add or take things out to make this your own and adjust for dietary restrictions. Let me know what you think! Ingredients:

As they say in my country, Bueno Provecho! This salad is healthy, filling and refreshing! It's also a great way to get rid of some small leftovers (for example, chicken, any ancient grain you have already made such as quinoa or couscous) and work through some veggies before you go grocery shopping! Perfect for a weeknight dinner or a weekend lunch, you'll be thanking me once you've tasted it! Vegans, opt out of the Feta and Chicken (you can always add baked tofu, but the beans should provide a good protein level for your nutrition). Time - 15-30 minutes (depending on whether you need to prepare ingredients or not). Ingredients
As they say in my country, Buen Provecho! Once you guys have this salad, you'll have it on your menu at least once a week! Remarkably versatile, it's a staple in our home now given our love for Mediterranean/Persian cooking. It can serve as a side salad or an entree, depending on you and your guests preference. Use this as a great opportunity to empty out the refrigerator before shopping day... and let me know what you like the most! Ingredients

As they say in my home country, Buen Provecho! This is a must make recipe for a weekend lunch or quick weeknight dinner - filling, zesty and tasty, but incredibly healthy - especially after the overindulgence of the holiday! This recipe is one I've made minor tweaks to over time after I originally found it in the NYT... below is my own version. And, use some of that leftover bread to make Pan con Tomate, an incredibly simple, delightful tapa you might have enjoyed wandering the streets of any town in Spain (in this instance, I'm still mourning their exit from the World Cup, but that's a topic for another day). Anyhow... this recipe works because of a simple, filling salad topped with a salad made creamy with a slight bit of briny feta cheese. Play around with it and make your own!

Instructions:
As they say in my home country, Bueno Provecho! Note: If you'd like to make vegan, you can do so by skipping the Feta, but I'd recommend replacing with nutritional yeast and a tablespoon of the caper brine. This recipe comes courtesy of the NYT and is a STELLAR addition to any meal! It definitely carries the flavors of the Middle East and is a fresh, wonderful idea for idea, especially for the hot summer days! To make vegan, remove the feta cheese.
