Question:
We're starting the free mediterranean diet. I really like the idea of fresh veggies and fruits, sees, lean meats, etc. Does anyone have any good free Mediterranean diet recipes? Right now we have lean chops, peppers, onions, and garlic in the crockpot.
Answer:
I like any book by Clifford Wright or Claudia Roden on the subject of Mediterranean food. Here's a page with links to Arabic food recipe sites (and many countries of the Arab world are on the Mediterranean; also the olive tree originated in the Eastern Mediterranean, long before the Arabs natch) http://bedouina.typepad.com/doves_eye/2004/07/arabic_food_rec.html Here's my personal page collecting my fave Mediterranean recipes online: http://bedouina.typepad.com/doves_eye/2004/11/doves_collected.html Note the inclusion of Brian Mailman's famous roasted eggplant souffle recipe.
