Zaatar is a delicious savory Mediterranean spice that can be any mixture of sesame seeds, oregano, dried sumac, coriander, marjoram, and other spices. Zaatar is delicious on many dishes such as pita bread, Israeli salad, or as a great way to spice up cauliflower. You can find zaatar in some supermarkets or you can purchase it on amazon. Cauliflower is a non starchy cruciferous vegetable filled with fiber, Vitamin C, and B-vitamins.
