Mediterranean Hummus Salad

It’s officially summer and nothing says summer more to me than a bright, fresh, and healthy salad with

homemade hummus and pita chips. Also my herbs in my garden are in full force, so any opportunity to

incorporate these in my recipes I get so excited. I’ll post the hummus and the pita recipes to my website

later this week, but for now, here is one of my favorite salads ever.

Ingredients:

• Hummus

• Pita chips

• 2 cups heirloom cherry tomatoes, halved

• 1 large cucumber, peeled, deseeded, and diced

• 1 red pepper, diced

• Kalamata and Castelvetrano olives, halved

• ½ cup red onion, diced

• ½ cup fresh mint, julienned

• Salt and pepper

• ¼ cup fresh lemon juice

• 1/3 cup olive oil

Add all vegetables into a bowl, dress with olive oil and lemon juice. Season with a good amount of salt

and pepper.

Place hummus at the base of a shallow dish and top with the salad. Avoid adding the liquid from the

salad to the hummus. Garnish with fresh mint and serve with toasted pita chips.
