Libyan cuisine is much like the cuisines of Algeria and Tunisia. Couscous is a mainstay. Spiced rice with meat and vegetables is a common meal. Libya is a Muslim country as well, and alcohol was banned by the government in 1969. Egyptian cuisine is influenced by the cuisines of Greece, Turkey, Lebanon, Palestine, and Syria. Common dishes include vegetable stews, rice and pasta, salads, and bread. 36 The Mediterranean Diet Some traditional dishes include fried eggplant, mixed or grilled salads often including grilled eggplant, beetroot, potato, mushrooms, chickpeas, black-eyed peas, cauliflower, tahini (sesame butter), artichokes, onions, spinach, and tomatoes; soups made with onion, tomato, yellow lentils, and other vegetables, and a variety of dried bean dishes; mixed dishes of ground meat, rice and lentils with tomato sauce, garlic and potatoes; stuffed grape leaves, walnut sauce, and a variety of breads.

This group seeks to resurrect many of the “old ways” of eating before the advent of food processing, and they have published guidelines for eating in the traditional Mediterranean way. Among these guidelines is their own version of the Food Guide Pyramid, the Mediterranean Food Guide Pyramid. Citing a recognition of high adult life expectancy rates and low chronic disease rates in the Mediterranean region around 1960, knowledge of food typically consumed in the area during this time, and the compatibility of these eating patterns with current knowledge of nutrition science, Oldways developed a list of “Characteristics of Traditional Healthy Mediterranean Diets” that make the diet sound anything but unusual: •�A diet centered on foods from plant sources: vegetables, fruits, whole grains, bread, pasta, nuts, and seeds.

The Mediterranean Diet Pyramid also separates fats and oils in more distinct categories than the other pyramids. Olive oil, the Mediterranean culinary star, should be the principal source of fat, followed by canola oil. These oils are high in monounsaturated fats and appear to promote heart health. Butter (high in saturated fat), margarine (which can be high in trans-fatty acids), and other vegetable oils should be used on a monthly basis in a truly Mediterraneaninspired diet. Note that olive and canola oil are “drizzled” over the top, not poured.
