    Middle East Travel

    Jordan has been the only country I've been able to visit in the Middle East, but I can't wait to go back and explore more of this region of the world. Ten days was not enough, but we managed to see a lot of the country.

    Beginning in Amman Jordan, our home base for a few days, we explored the best restaurants in Amman, which is my favorite thing to do anywhere! Not far from Amman, we explored Ancient Jerash Jordan, which was just incredible. As we moved on through the country, we visited Petra, stayed at Feynan Ecolodge, and ended our trip at the Dead Sea.

    Once home, I was missing the food, so learned to make this vegan hummus and this Muhammara, also known as red pepper dip. I couldn't get enough of the mezze all over Jordan.

    Have you been to the Middle East? What's your favorite country?
