I love cheese. With thyme leaves. My trade off for diving into this decadence without the heaviness of carbs as a base, is to layer the cheese generously on warm grilled vegetables instead. For this recipe, I placed an order for zucchinis/courgettes, sweet cherry tomatoes and Nabulsi cheese from Greenheart Organic Farms to create this simple, healthy organic dish. Zucchini is a winner sitting at only 17 calories per 100g, contains no saturated fats or cholesterol and its peel is a great source of dietary fiber that helps reduce constipation. Nabulsi cheese is a Palestinian cheese (made from goats and cows milk at Greenheart’s farm – free from antibiotics and pesticides) and is very versatile when cooked and grilled…giving it the perfect melt-in-the-middle and grilled to crispy-golden-perfection at the top. It is also used in traditional Arabic desserts during Ramadan such as Konafah.
This is one of my favorite no-fuss healthy recipes – I hope you enjoy recreating it at home!
