Early life
Massaad was born in Beirut, Lebanon, but soon emigrated to the United States with her parents. The family settled in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. As a teenager, she gained first culinary experience assisting her father, a photographer by training, in the family-owned Lebanese restaurant. In 1988, she returned to Lebanon for university, graduating with a BA degree in Advertising and Marketing.

Massaad trained with chefs at Lebanese, Italian, and French restaurants. In 2006, she joined the Slow Food Movement, an organization which promotes the preservation of local food traditions, biodiversity, and small-scale food production.

Her second book Mouneh: Preserving Foods for the Lebanese Pantry [5] includes a selection of recipes, photos and accompanying stories. Her third, Mezze: A Labor of Love, illustrated by Pascale Hares, includes recipes for the creation of the traditional Lebanese dish mezze.
Massaad hosted a weekly TV segment on Lebanese/International channel LBCI on Helwi Beirut, featuring culinary tours around Lebanon, focusing on local foods, interviewing and cooking with local chefs, producers, housewives and farmers.
After visiting a refugee camp in Syria in 2016, Massaad published another cookbook, Soup for Syria, designating the profits to support refugees.[6][7][8] As well as her own recipes, the book contains soup recipes donated by a number of well-known chefs.[9][10]
