Instructions

  1. Toast the pita bread
    Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut pita bread into triangles and spread on a baking sheet. Bake for 5-7 minutes until crisp and golden. Allow to cool, then break into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Prepare the vegetables
    Wash and chop all vegetables. Dice the tomatoes, cucumber, and bell pepper. Thinly slice the radishes and green onions. Finely chop the parsley and mint leaves.
  3. Make the dressing
    In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, sumac, cumin, salt, and pepper until well combined. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  4. Combine the salad
    In a large salad bowl, combine all the prepared vegetables and herbs. Toss gently to mix evenly.
  5. Add bread and dress the salad
    Add the toasted pita pieces to the vegetable mixture. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently until everything is evenly coated.
  6. Let flavors meld
    Allow the salad to sit for 5-10 minutes before serving to let the flavors combine and the bread to slightly soften from the dressing.
