Is there a food that contains the entire daily recommended amount of calcium in a single serving?
What are some dishes that are used in Lebanese cooking? Is there a recipe book for Middle Eastern food that contains a recipe for Lebanese lentils?

Hello mmng23,
There are several foods that are rich in calcium and one serving of yogurt which is the best source of calcium has only about 42% of the recommended daily allowance for adults. Therefore there is no food that has the recommended daily allowance for calcium in one serving. It is important to note here that recommended daily allowance for calcium varies according to age and sex. For more information on good sources of calcium and the recommended daily allowance for all age groups check this link http://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/calcium/
Cheese which is a concentrated form of milk is very high in calcium and one cup of cheddar cheese has about 925mg of calcium. However, even this amount can fall short of the recommended daily intake for women who are in the 14–18 and 51–70 age groups.

Some famous Lebanese dishes are Fattoush, Dawood Basha, Baklava, and small dishes served as part of Mezze which can contain around 30 different dishes.
The book at this link on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/Lebanese-Cookbook-Hussein-Dekmak/dp/product-description/0781812089 has a recipe for a lentils dish which a reviewer has stated is very good.
