Lamb Fattoush Salad
with feta / pita chips / creamy tahini dressing

Active: 30 Total: 30

We've included several versions of fattoush in previous meal plans but are excited about this version that is topped with warm, spiced lamb. What makes fattoush stand out from other entree salads is the addition of pita chips. Crumble them over the salad right before serving so they retain some crunch - the texture contrast is great!
