• servings: Serves 8 to 10
• total time: 20 minutes

Ingredients

4 ¼ cups hummus

1 ½ cups plain Greek yogurt

1 cup ¼-inch English cucumber pieces

½ cup jarred roasted red peppers, patted dry and chopped

⅓ cup pitted kalamata olives, chopped

4 scallions, sliced thin

3 tablespoons extra-virgin

olive oil, plus extra for drizzling

2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint

¼ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon pepper

2 ounces feta cheese, crumbled (½ cup)

Directions

Spread hummus in single layer on large, shallow serving platter. Carefully spread yogurt in even layer over hummus. Combine cucumber, red peppers, olives, scallions, oil, mint, salt, and pepper in bowl. Spoon vegetable mixture in even layer over yogurt. Sprinkle with feta and drizzle with extra oil. Serve with pita chips.

Notes

We prefer the thick texture of Greek yogurt to the thinner texture of regular yogurt for this recipe. For added flavor, you can substitute store-bought tzatziki sauce for the yogurt. For best results, be sure to assemble this dip shortly before serving, because it doesn’t store well. Serve the dip with pita chips or sliced vegetables.
