Recipes Freshen Up Your Winter

• 1 package halloumi cheese, cut into 1 inch cubes • 1 pint ripe cherry tomatoes • 6 x 10-12 inch wooden skewers (soaked in water for at least 20 minutes) • Arugula for serving Directions In a medium bowl, mix together the oil, basil, garlic, chili flakes, salt and pepper. Add the zucchini, tomatoes and halloumi and toss well to combine. Thread the veggies and cheese onto the skewers and preheat your grill or BBQ to 400F. Brush the grill and rub with a little canola oil to prevent sticking. Grill the skewers for about 4 minutes on each side, until lightly charred and no longer pink in the centre. Serve right away on a bed of fresh arugula.

For the toppings: • Sliced radishes • Sliced cucumbers • Pickled turnip • Maroun’s garlic paste from Cedar’s Eatery • 4 sesame buns, cut sides brushed with olive oil Directions Combine all the patty ingredients in a me- dium bowl. Use a potato masher or pastry cutter to mash up the chickpeas, until a rough paste is formed. Form the mixture into 4 patties about ¾ inch thick and refrig- erate for at least one hour. Preheat one side of your grill at 450F for at least 10 minutes. Place the patties on the hot grill and cook for 5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook another 4 minutes, then remove to a cooler side of the grill.
