Hummus Shawarma
Although we most often think of hummus as a vegetarian-based appetizer, a recipe of ground beef served over hummus is not new, and is actually quite a popular mezze on the Middle Eastern table. The warm, spiced beef with the creamy hummus creates a wonderful taste and texture, and is perfect for scooping up with toasted bread. This dish can become a favorite item during Ramadan.

Chef’s Tip:
- This recipe is delicious as is but is also the ideal dish for adding toppings and garnishes with various flavors and textures. Grilled eggplant would also be nice or add a handful of toasted pine nuts, a drizzle of fruity olive oil, a spoonful of crumbled feta cheese, and some chopped fresh mint.
