Ingredients
Rich Bread Pudding Delight
Instructions
Step 1
Start by heating some grapeseed oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Toss in the pita bread pieces and cook them, stirring occasionally, until they turn nice and golden, about 2 to 3 minutes. Once they’re crispy, move them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 2
In a big bowl, combine the chopped romaine lettuce, tomato, red onion, cucumber, feta cheese, mint, and parsley. Give everything a good mix so the flavors start to come together.
Step 3
Next, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, Greek seasoning, sumac, salt, and black pepper in a small bowl until it’s well blended. Pour this dressing over the salad along with the toasted pita pieces, then toss everything gently to coat evenly.
Step 4
Serve right away to keep the pita nice and crunchy!

Storage Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Keep the toasted pita separate to maintain its crispness. Before serving again, give the salad a quick toss to redistribute the dressing.
