Ingredients
- 1 large naan bread or 3-4 small ones or toasted pita bread
- 3-4 large ripe tomatoes diced into bite-sized pieces
- 1 thin English cucumber diced into ¼ inch pieces
- 2-3 green onions thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup flat-leaf parsley chopped
Dressing:
- 1 cup PLAIN yogurt
- 2 tablespoons freshly chopped mint
- 2 cloves garlic pressed
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice and 1/2 tbsp lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar or cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
- ¾ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon sumac orange Middle Eastern spice
Instructions
- Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Drizzle the naan bread with a bit of water, then place it onto the hot grill.
- Grill for about 2 minutes per side, or until nicely charred and toasted.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl add all dressing ingredients and mix to combine.
- In a large bowl, combine prepped veggies. Pour the dressing over and mix to combine. Allow the flavors to meld for at least 15 minutes.
- Just before serving, break the naan into bite-sized pieces and toss it into the salad
- Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
- Naan: The naan can be replaced with pita bread. Lightly fry or toast the pita bread pieces on a pan.
- Oil: Olive oil works great in a salad but it can be replaced with avocado oil
- Yogurt: Best to use plain yogurt. This can be replaced with Greek Yogurt or for a vegan-friendly option, you may use non-dairy yogurt.
- Mint: Fresh mint gives a unique and fresh taste to the salad. But this can be replaced with one tablespoon of dried mint.
- Sumac: this is a Mediterranean herb/spice. If you have this and are able to buy it please use it, otherwise, you can omit it.
- To store: it is best to not mix the salad with the dressing and store the dressing separately to prevent it from getting soggy. If you do have a leftover salad that's already tossed in with the dressing, place it in an airtight container in the fridge and serve it the next day.
