What makes these mediterranean recipes different?
These Mediterranean recipes are tagged when their ingredient mix matches the pattern documented in the PREDIMED and EAT-Lancet research: olive oil as the primary fat, weekly fish, daily vegetables and legumes, limited red meat, moderate dairy. Per-serving fiber, monounsaturated fat, and added-sugar values come from ingredient grams against USDA-style reference data. Recipes that drift away from the pattern (heavy butter, high red meat) are excluded before they enter the category.
