Halloumi Bundles of Love

Grilled Halloumi with Zaatar & Dandelion Greens

Pears with Pecorino and Honey

This is a simple North African-esque dessert using local Patches of Star Halloumi cheese from the Greenmarket topped with honey, lemon juice, walnuts, and mint. Honey, walnuts, and mint are the holy trinity of healthy Middle Eastern dessert toppings.

Halloumi cheese
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2-3 mint leaves, julienned
1 tablespoon chopped walnuts

For two people, slice 1 large block of the cheese for each person. Do not use the whole block for this dessert, but measure at your discretion.
Grill the Halloumi in a grill pan or on the grill until warm and soft, about 3 minutes on each side. Divide onto 2 plates.
Stir together the honey and lemon juice.
Drizzle the honey/lemon combination over the grilled cheese and top with the walnuts and mint.
Serves 2.
