Fresh and Flavorful Mediterranean Summer Recipes by Tori Avey

These Summer Recipes are filled with a bounty of fruits and vegetables that peak in flavor and abundance during the summer season. As you have probably learned by now, seasonality is one of the most important aspects of the Mediterranean Diet. A focus on produce that is in season promises the best taste and nutritional value that food will have to offer.

Here you’ll find fall recipes with ingredients like tomatoes, peppers, corn, zucchini, strawberries, stone fruit, basil, cucumber, and lots more. There are recipes for appetizers, salads, mezze, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and, of course, dessert. The Mediterranean diet is all about balanced eating, and this collection of summer recipes is a reflection of that.
