]]>From baked feta pasta to girl dinner, TikTok introduced us to many food trends over the years, and they have one thing in common with watermelon sandwiches. You don’t have to be a food expert to try any of these food trends, and the list of ingredients you’ll need is pretty short.
Food influencer Linda who goes by @linder_surprise on TikTok helped this viral trend go viral when she shared her own version of a watermelon sandwich. Several celebrities discovered this juicy delight thanks to her viral video, including songwriter and music producer Benny Blanco, who introduced it to Selena Gomez.

♬ Little Things – Adrian Berenguer
The main idea behind this viral dish is to use watermelon slices instead of bread when making your sandwiches. Pickles, ketchup, cheese, fresh basil leaves, and balsamic vinegar are some of the ingredients used in Linda’s original recipe, but they’re not a must. Feel free to experiment when making your own watermelon sandwiches, and choose the combo of ingredients that go well with watermelon, from feta to salmon.

]]>Ingredients:
- 1 tin of chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 2 large red bell peppers
- 3 tablespoons tahini
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, plus extra for roasting
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional garnishes: chopped fresh parsley, drizzle of olive oil, sprinkle of smoked paprika
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the red bell peppers in half and remove the seeds and membranes. Place the pepper halves on a baking sheet, skin side up. Drizzle with a little olive oil.
- Roast the peppers in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the skins are blistered and charred. Remove the peppers from the oven and transfer them to a bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel and let the peppers steam for about 10 minutes. This will make it easier to remove the skins.
- Once the peppers have cooled slightly, peel off the charred skins and discard. In a food processor, combine the roasted red peppers, drained and rinsed chickpeas, tahini, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper.
- Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the food processor as needed. If the hummus is too thick, you can add a little water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding more salt, lemon juice, or spices to suit your taste.
- Once blended to your liking, transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish the hummus with a drizzle of olive oil, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
- Serve the homemade hummus with your favorite dippers such as pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables.

]]>The post How to Make This Mindblowing Baba Ghanoush Flatbread appeared first on foodisinthehouse.com.
]]>Ingredients:
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour, plus extra for dusting
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 3/4 cup of warm water
- 2 large eggplants
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons tahini
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Optional: Smoked paprika, toasted sesame seeds, or pine nuts (for garnish)
Instructions
- Start by making the flatbread. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, salt, and baking powder. Add the olive oil and warm water, and mix until a soft dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes, or until the dough is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
- While the dough is resting, preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Divide the rested dough into 6-8 equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball, then use a rolling pin to flatten it into a thin circle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Place the flattened dough circles onto the preheated grill or grill pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and slightly puffed. Remove from the grill and set aside.
- To prepare the baba ghanoush, preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Pierce the eggplants several times with a fork and place them on a baking sheet. Roast in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the eggplants are soft and collapsed. Remove the roasted eggplants from the oven and let them cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and discard it. Place the flesh of the eggplants in a food processor.
- Add the minced garlic, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to the food processor with the eggplant flesh. Blend until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
- Transfer the baba ghanoush to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped fresh parsley. If desired, drizzle with a little extra olive oil and sprinkle with smoked paprika, toasted sesame seeds, or pine nuts for extra flavor and texture. Serve the homemade flatbread and baba ghanoush together as a delicious appetizer or snack, and enjoy the delightful flavors of the Mediterranean in every bite!
