If you don\u2019t have one no worries place each component in a small bowl or a plate and arrange it neatly on a table. Both display beautifully. Mezza is about sampling and assorted ingredients and food, think tasty flavors and textures. You can always make two or more platters if you are having a larger gathering.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2) <b><u>Vegetables<\/u><\/b>! Mediterranean cuisines all about vegetables. Think in colors and seasons if possible. I like to include a few roast veggies and a few raw veggies. If you want to go one step further add marinated veggies too. I love roasted peppers, zucchini, onions, eggplant, asparagus make great roast veggies. Simply grill 2-3 varieties with olive oil salt and pepper. Choose a few raw vegetables; cucumber, colorful radishes, baby carrots, baby tomatoes are fabulous to nibble on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3) <b><u>Dips<\/u><\/b>! These are the anchors of any good Mezza platter. Choose 2-3 that you like make them at home or buy them, just remember to choose a really good quality dip.I like to stick with Mediterranean style dips. Hummus, babaganoush, tatziki, labneh are excellent and popular for a reason. If you feel adventurous make hummus in other flavors like beet, sundried tomatoes. Here are some recipes if you\u2019d like to try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/?p=4908\"><\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. <b><u>Pickled and Marinated!<\/u><\/b> You can make these or make a trip to the olive bar at any good grocery store. Pick a selection of olives, marinated veggies like artichokes, mushrooms, sweet peppers, okra. They have really interesting products to select. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. <b><u>cheese, nuts and meats<\/u><\/b>. We left out the meats and cheese to keep it plant based. Though I make vegan feta on this occasion I didn\u2019t make cheese this time. If you want cheese use feta, grill up some halloumi, mizitra, marinated mozzarella balls are also pretty on a platter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. <b><u>Fruits<\/u><\/b>! Are a great addition and makes the platter look beautiful. I love beautiful figs, pomegranate, fresh oranges and grapes, use any fruit you like and is in season. Fruits act as a palate cleanser and neutralizer. Seasonal are best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. <b><u>Salads<\/u><\/b>! If I\u2019m making a dinner platter I add a tabouli salad or a balala chickpea salad in the center of the platter. This is optional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7) Lastly we need <b><u>bread<\/u><\/b> to mop up the dips right. Warm pita is always a good choice on your mezze platter, crostini and crackers work really well too.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1513\" height=\"2324\" src=\"https:\/\/i2.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/3F91277F-2532-4949-B887-56A0AE05EA35.jpeg?fit=667%2C1024\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6358\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/?attachment_id=6358\" class=\"wp-image-6358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/3F91277F-2532-4949-B887-56A0AE05EA35.jpeg 1513w, https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/3F91277F-2532-4949-B887-56A0AE05EA35-195x300.jpeg 195w, https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/3F91277F-2532-4949-B887-56A0AE05EA35-768x1180.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/3F91277F-2532-4949-B887-56A0AE05EA35-667x1024.jpeg 667w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1513px) 100vw, 1513px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1664\" height=\"2504\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/70265E5B-118D-4540-A3AA-5F708469E9F1.jpeg?fit=680%2C1024\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"6359\" data-link=\"http:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/?attachment_id=6359\" class=\"wp-image-6359\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/70265E5B-118D-4540-A3AA-5F708469E9F1.jpeg 1664w, https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/70265E5B-118D-4540-A3AA-5F708469E9F1-199x300.jpeg 199w, https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/70265E5B-118D-4540-A3AA-5F708469E9F1-768x1156.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.nourishdeliciously.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/70265E5B-118D-4540-A3AA-5F708469E9F1-680x1024.jpeg 680w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1664px) 100vw, 1664px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.themediterraneandish.com\/tahini-sauce-recipe-how-to-make-tahini\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I love Mediterranean food for its fresh delicious earthy flavors.
