Ingredients

2 cups hummus (store-bought or homemade)

¼ cup kalamata olives, pitted and chopped (optional)

1 ½ cups cherry tomatoes, sliced in half (or quartered if large)

½ cup sliced cucumbers (approx. 4 mini cucumbers)

1 small red onion or shallot, peeled and thinly sliced (approx. ¼ cup)

23 pepperoncini peppers, thinly sliced

1 clove of garlic, peeled and minced

½ teaspoon oregano

Salt and pepper to taste

¼ cup olive oil

1 to 2 tablespoons finely chopped herbs (parsley, mint, and chives, or your favorite herbs)

Sumac or paprika for sprinkling

Toasted pine nuts for serving (optional)

Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Veggies: Toss the cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, red onion, pepperoncini peppers, olives (if using), and garlic with olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper. Add the fresh herbs and toss to combine. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Hummus Base: Spread the hummus onto a large serving platter or shallow bowl. Use the back of a spoon to make shallow swoops or grooves in the hummus, creating small pools for olive oil.
  3. Assemble the Dish: Spoon the prepared veggie mixture evenly over the hummus. Garnish with additional fresh herbs, crumbled feta cheese, toasted pine nuts (if using), and a sprinkle of sumac or paprika.
  4. Serve: Serve immediately with pita chips, pita bread slices, or fresh vegetables like cucumbers and sweet peppers. Add lemon wedges on the side for an extra burst of freshness.

Notes

  • For a vegan version, omit the feta cheese or use plant-based feta.
  • For more protein, add chickpeas, falafel, or grilled chicken on top of the hummus.
  • Add extra heat by sprinkling chili flakes or hot sauce on the finished dish.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2-3 days. Serve with pita chips, fresh vegetables, or grilled meats.
