I decided to take a little break from the wedding blog posts to share a yummy recipe with you that is perfect for a cookout, pot luck, or even just to snack on by yourself!
Saturday, Brian and I went to a summer cookout held by the director of the dental clinic at his school.
There were lots of yummy sweets and treats on the table, and I had my fair share but because I knew that there would be plenty of desserts and other fun things to eat I wanted to bring something fun AND nutritious that incorporated some veggies.
At my bridal shower, my mom made a delicious dip of hummus with lots of goodies on top. Β I couldn’t get enough of it then, and it was the perfect dip for celery and carrots (which just happen to be two of my favorite veggies!).
I used that dip as inspiration for the delicious layered hummus dip that I took to our summer cookout.
Ingredients:
Directions:
I opted for my favorite store-bought hummus to save a bit of time while making this appetizer rather than making my own hummus. Β It still tasted great, and I appreciated the extra time buying the hummus allowed me to have.
My favorite store-bought hummus? Β Sabra Roasted Pine Nut.
Spread your hummus onto a pretty plate into a smooth, even layer.
Top with all of your toppings (black olives, artichoke, cucumber, red pepper, red onion, and feta).
While adding the toppings simply sprinkle evenly over the entire dish. Β Voila!! Your yummy appetizer is complete, and you can serve it with your favorite veggies, homemade whole wheat pita chips, or anything your heart desires.
