Mediterranean Layer Dip


Time for another recipe swap! It is a good thing I keep doing these because they make me update my blog regularly. This weeks swap theme was something you would take to a Memorial Day cookout. I submitted S'more Brownies and in return got this fabulous dip from Baby Food Scoops. When I saw this recipe was immediately excited because I love these flavors (minus the onions of course). I have always been a fan of hummus, but this recipe makes hummus even more amazing. It adds texture and freshness that is sometimes missing. The best part of this dip is it healthy and guilt free.

INGREDIENTS

Note: Required quantities dependent upon desired amount of finished product.

hummus (I used roasted garlic)
cucumber, peeled and chopped
tomato, seeded and chopped
Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped
feta cheese, crumbled
pitas, for serving

DIRECTIONS

Spread hummus onto serving platter. Scatter cucumber, tomato, olives and feta over hummus.

Serve with pita bread sliced into finger-sized pieces.

  1. Melissa, I'm so happy you liked it! I am not normally an olive fan so I was hesitant to try at first but wow, the flavors really meld well together. This is definitely our most requested appetizer, which is great because it's ridiculously easy to put together! -Nicole www.babyfoodscoops.com
