Simply Dinner Pantry Essentials

Building your Mediterranean pantry is the first step to making healthy, Mediterranean Diet-friendly meals on busy weeknights. Inspired by the recipes in her new cookbook, Simply Dinner, this collection features 9 of Suzy’s hand-picked essentials to get you started, including extra virgin olive oils, heart-healthy legumes, ancient whole grains, vibrant Mediterranean spices, and flavor-packed condiments—a $108 value.

Included in the bundle:

• Koroneiki - Organic Greek EVOO: The cornerstone of Mediterranean cuisine, our premium olive oil is perfect for sautéing, marinades, salad dressings, or finishing dishes with a touch of richness and healthy fats.

• Chickpeas: This workhorse is a must-have in Mediterranean pantries, used for both traditional dishes like hummus and to add plant-based protein to salads, stews and beyond.

• Coarse Bulgur: A quick-cooking, fiber-rich grain ideal for grain bowls, and as a hearty side to your favorite proteins, offering a nutty flavor and satisfying texture.

• Aleppo Pepper: Similar to standard red pepper flakes but with a more nuanced flavor, this dried chili pepper will add a mild heat and slightly tart note to roasted vegetables, marinades, eggs, pizza, and more.

• Za'atar: This classic Middle Eastern spice blend mixes tart sumac, nutty sesame seeds, and aromatic wild thyme. It’s traditionally served with olive oil and pita bread as a snack, but you’ll soon find yourself sprinkling it on everything, from your morning eggs to roast vegetables and meats.

• Sumac: This tangy spice is often compared to lemon zest but it’s so much more: tannic, tart, bright and a touch smoky. Add to your salad dressings, meat marinades, or use as a final garnish for grilled fish and hummus.

• Oregano: An essential herb in Mediterranean cooking, particularly across Greece, Turkey, and Italy, oregano adds a fragrant and deeply savory note to a variety of dishes, from pasta sauces to Chicken Souvlaki, Greek salad, Italian seasoning, marinades, and more.

• Harissa Paste: With its layers of spicy, citrusy, garlicky and smoky flavor, this North African red chili paste almost feels like cheating. So much big bold flavor and you only had to open a jar! Use as glaze or marinade for meat, fish, and poultry, or just as you would your favorite hot sauce.

• Sun-Dried Tomatoes: Sweet, tangy, and pleasantly chewy, these all-natural sun-dried tomatoes elevate simple skillet chicken dinners, pastas, salads, and beyond.
