Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1/4 cup tahini

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 garlic clove, minced

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt and pepper, to taste

1/3 cup Greek yogurt

1 medium cucumber, diced

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

Pita bread or vegetable sticks, for serving

Instructions
 

Prepare the Hummus Base: In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until you reach your desired consistency.

    Layering the Hummus: Spread the blended hummus into a shallow serving dish, creating a well in the center for toppings.

      Add the Toppings: Spoon the Greek yogurt into the well created in the hummus. Evenly distribute the chopped cucumber, halved cherry tomatoes, chopped Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese over the hummus.

        Drizzle and Garnish: Drizzle additional olive oil over the top for extra flavor and garnish with fresh parsley.

          Serve: Serve the Greek style loaded hummus with warm pita bread or an assortment of vegetable sticks like carrots and bell peppers.
