Fattoush Salads
with Crispy White Beans & Radish
Crispy, crunchy, juicy, and refreshing: fattoush is a Lebanese salad made from pieces of toasted pita, vibrant herbs, and fresh vegetables. It boasts a notable floral tartness from sumac, a dried and ground crimson-colored berry. We swapped in crispy cannellini beans for the traditional pita to boost the protein and fiber in this refreshing, sodium-smart salad under 600 calories.
