Your top and best resource for easy Mediterranean recipes and more!

My name is Suzy Karadsheh Chef and New York Times Bestselling Author, here on The Mediterranean Dish YouTube Channel, you will find easy, wholesome, and healthy recipes that celebrate the bold flavors of the Mediterranean from Southern Europe, to North Africa, and the Middle East.

I am a true daughter of the Mediterranean. I was born on the coast of Egypt in the bustling cosmopolitan city of Port Said, the North entrance of the Suez Canal, and just a boat ride away from places like Italy, Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Palestine and Israel.

As a busy mom, all of the Mediterranean recipes were developed in my humble kitchen, offering a personal twist to the dishes that I serve to the ones I love.

If you love Greek food, Italian food, Moroccan, Middle Eastern and more, you will find it all here, adapted with a modern twist for all the busy cooks out there! While the majority of the recipes here are Mediterranean diet recipes, some may not meet your particular health needs. Please consult your healthcare professional to select what works best for you.

I used lemon olive oil, added Kalamata olives, a little extra squeeze of lemon, and a little feta and omg, this is so good. I didn't even know I could enjoy cucumber and tomato this much, usually they're things I begrudgingly eat because they're healthy for you.

[melaniejubara]

This recipe is BOMB. I added some feta and it was delicious perfect for a hot summer day

[OregonianLady]

These 3 ingredients with black or green olives added is awesome!
The flavor contrast is very good.

[GreenManalishiUSA]

Make and enjoy this wonderful salad. Then for an added treat when you are done, tear up some chunks of crusty bread and dip them in the vegetable juices that collected at the bottom of the bowl. Delicious!

I make this with fresh ingredients all summer but I always add one half of a diced red onion!👌

[insertcalamity]

Just found this and im drooling, i have a really bad diet and im trying to change it with a Mediterranean diet! So thank you for this !!!

[avabassnett]

[pambundren]

I bet some red onion's would be delicious in it also yummy 😋

[putzmanmusing]

Love this salad and I add diced sweet onions to the salad, adds addtional flavor...this salad is great for loosing weight too

[gaittr]

My college roommate who was from Jordan used to make this for us all the time and it was absolutely the most delicious thing. You wouldn't think something so simple could be so delicious but it's amazingly delicious

[virginiagill]

Oh my gosh! THANK YOU! I used to get this salad at a little restaurant in Chicago and it quickly became my favorite. Once I moved away I could never figure out exactly what made up the “dressing.” Sumac never occurred to me even though I’ve always had it on hand for seasoning my steaks. This video made my day!

[mr-vet]

I make something similar for my wife, but with cilantro instead of parsley and a 2-1 ratio of cucumbers to tomatoes. I also add salt, fresh cracked black pepper, a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar, and some EVOO.

[judierenfrow]

I made a salad last night for dinner. English cucumber, tomatoes and avocado. I like yours. I just put olive oil on my salad. Thank you for sharing.

[Lisa]

I love how much parsley you use.. it's so good and such a fresh herb!

[ritalawson]

Add a small chopped avocado too and a can of tuna chopped roast turkey or baked flaked salmon portion and grapeseed oil has loads of antioxidants, try it you will be amazed!!!!

[CatfishBonez]

I make a large bowl of this at the start of the week to eat throughout the week. It's perfect! I changed a little. I add some red onions and olives. Instead of sumac I use some red wine vinegar to give it a tang. I always use Roma tomatoes because they last longer in the fridge once prepared.

[nidumite]

Never heard "you all" when I've visited the Med, sounded fine, lovely salad will try.

[darrellrees]

Absolutely lovely. The salad looks pretty good too!

[rosey]

I make a version of that. I use peeled English cucumbers, Roma tomatoes, parsley, and yellow onion. The seasonings are salt, pepper, Greek seasoning, olive oil, and apple cider vinegar.
