Ingredients

  • 1 cup hummus homemade or store bought
  • 1 cup tzatziki homemade or store bought
  • 3 Pita bread rounds
  • 1 cup fresh vegetables such as cucumbers or cherry tomatoes
  • 3/4 cup Mixed olives
  • 1/2 cup feta cheese cubed
  • 1 cup Tabbouleh homemade or store bought
  • 8 dolmas homemade or store bought
  • 4 teaspoons olive oil divided use
  • 1 cup grilled or roasted vegetables such as red bell peppers or artichokes
  • fresh herbs for garnish

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Brush 2 teaspoons of olive oil over both sides of the pita bread. Heat the pita bread in a 400 degrees F or on a grill for 3-5 minutes or until warmed through. Cut each pita into eighths.
  2. Arrange the pita bread, hummus, tzatziki, fresh and grilled vegetables, olives, feta cheese, tabbouleh and dolmas on a larger platter.
  3. Drizzle the remaining 2 teaspoons of olive oil over the hummus and tzatziki. Garnish the platter with fresh herbs, then serve.

Notes

  • Fresh vegetables add color and crunch. Cucumbers and tomatoes are typical additions, but other great choices include radishes, red bell peppers and baby carrots.
  • Check out the olive bar at your local grocery store and choose an assortment of black and green olives in different sizes and shapes.
  • I use a lot of pickled and roasted cold veggies like artichoke hearts, marinated mushrooms and cherry peppers.
