FATTOUSH-ISH SALAD
In this dinner party-friendly Middle East-inspired dish-think fattoush (Lebanese bread salad) meets tabbouleh. We finely chop the lettuce and vegetables to stretch the serving size, then add bulgur for bulk. The lemon-honey combo in the dressing mimics sumac-a berry with a fruity, astringent flavor that's found throughout the Middle East and often used in fattoush.

- Put the oil, lemon zest and juice, vinegar, honey, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small jar or container with a lid. Secure the lid, and shake to combine.
