With all the attention that the Mediterranean diet has received for its healthful benefits, Mediterranean recipes have become all the rage. Their diet consists of lots of fruits and vegetables, whole-grain breads and cereals, olive oil, and fish, with less red meat. Try recipes from Spain, France, Italy, Morocco and Greece for their regional cuisine, and you will likely never get bored. Each region focuses on its own traditional spices and cooking styles. People in this region sit for hours to eat while socializing, often outside.
Catalan cuisine is famous for its black rice, delicious seafood paella, which can be cooked indoors or outdoors, Catalan creme brulee and so many gorgeous dishes. Greece is famous for pita breads and lamb. Lebanon brings manouche, a pizza that is eaten for breakfast or any time of the day. Bruschetta is a comfort food enjoyed everywhere because it is so easy to prepare. Olives of every description and flavor come from every region. Mediterranean recipes deserve their popularity because of their diversity.
