How to Prepare an Effortless Mediterranean Lunch: Sweet Potato, Halloumi

  • For years, I have been preparing a delightful lunch consisting of a baked sweet potato with halloumi and a simple Greek salad.
  • This scrumptious meal can be made in less than 30 minutes using only a handful of ingredients.
  • It’s the perfect choice for those following the Mediterranean diet, providing an easy and satisfying “lazy girl” lunch option.

Growing up in a Greek-Cypriot family, halloumi has been a part of my diet for as long as I can remember.

To me, this cheese made from goat’s and sheep’s milk (and sometimes cow’s milk) is versatile and delicious, whether eaten as it is, fried, or grilled (it doesn’t melt!). It can be enjoyed in various ways, such as grilled in pitta bread, grated on top of kritharaki, or served with thinly sliced watermelon for a refreshing snack.

However, my absolute favorite way to savor this Mediterranean staple is by pairing it with a baked sweet potato. The saltiness of the halloumi beautifully balances the sweetness of the potato, and the cheese’s semi-hard texture complements the fluffy potato mash perfectly. It’s so indulgent that it doesn’t even require butter.

A college friend introduced me to this quick and easy lunch, and it has become my go-to option on lazy weekdays. Now, you can enjoy this delightful meal too!
