Saffron's subtle colour and aroma add depth to this flavourful dish.
This salad is a great make-ahead lunch. If you don't like the texture of refrigerated tomatoes (they get mealy), set them aside until you're ready to eat. This mixture also makes the ideal filling for a pita or wrap.
The complex, sour-sweet flavours of pomegranate molasses (available in Middle Eastern and fine food stores) give this dip a tangy edge. If you can't find it, use 3 tbsp (50 mL) lemon juice and 2 tbsp (25 mL) liquid honey instead. Serve with pita chips.
This savoury dish has a little heat and a touch of sweetness from the raisins and caramelized onions. You'll find garam masala, an Indian spice blend, in the spice section of the supermarket. Serve over basmati rice.
This vegetable and chickpea couscous fills you up without filling you out. Chickpeas are high in fibre and iron, and the prunes add a hint of natural sweetness, which makes this all-in-one dish feel indulgent.
