Dolma is a traditional dish with origins in Middle Eastern, Mediterranean, and Balkan cuisines. It typically consists of grape leaves or vegetables like peppers, zucchini, or eggplants stuffed with a savory mixture of rice, herbs, and sometimes ground meat. Flavored with ingredients such as olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and spices, dolma offers a delightful balance of tangy and earthy flavors. From a nutritional standpoint, dolma is rich in fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants from the vegetables and herbs. The olive oil provides heart-healthy fats, while the rice contributes carbohydrates for energy. When prepared with ground meat, it adds a source of protein. However, variations with high sodium or excess oil may be less healthy, so moderation is key. Enjoyed as an appetizer or main course, dolma is a wholesome and flavorful addition to a balanced diet.
