Fattoush? Yes, Fattoush. Sort of. Could I call this Minnesotan Fattoush, since I did not make it with a pita and enjoyed it with bottled dressing?
I can’t bring myself to do it. It just seems offensive to take something that’s real, and make it something else, that’s not what it really is, and call it what it’s not, because you’re using its real name. So, Greek Salad it is.
Oiy.
I found the original Fattoush recipe on the delicious blog called eat. drink. and be merry.
Which I have been doing, and will continue to do, thank you very much!
