Who has time to cook when records are being set today for unseasonably warm weather? Not I! However my daughter and fiancé are driving in for the holiday and will expect something more than cereal.
I purchased some healthy ready-mades creating a simple platter we can enjoy at
leisure.
I could have spent hours charring my eggplant and pureeing my chickpeas for the baba ganoosh and hummus but decided to let the Mediterranean Market do the work for me. I’m not the only one who finds this shop a jewel–check out these “Yelp” reviews!
As I was purchasing my treats, I watched them pull out trays of freshly baked warm pita bread from the open hearth oven. Better not forget the pita. I purchased a bag of warm whole wheat and another bag of sesame pita.
I’ll slice some cucumber to use with the pita for dipping into the savory spreads. The market also carries an array of baklava and other Middle Eastern pastries, perfect for dessert.
