Greek Salad Hummus Flatbread
Hummus flatbread with tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, peppers, feta and garlic sauce makes for an easy to prepare appetizer or snack.
By the way, this could be a meal too. If you are grilling or hosting for Memorial Day, this is perfect addition whether you make homemade flatbread or use store-bought one. Easy to make ahead. Just assemble it before guests arrive or before you plan to serve.
Completely different yet healthy and satisfying.
You can customize it too; this flatbread is everything to me. Hummus is so filling along with some Greek style salad and home baked flatbread. May I say its rustic too.
This hummus flatbread is exactly the way I love to eat, a little bit messy, has lots of flavor, perfectly fitting to be an actual dinner.
I made flatbread at home, but you can totally use store -bought ones, pita bread or naan. I prefer homemade hummus, which can be made days ahead and stored in the fridge. Then topped it with our all-time Greek salad, made with tomatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, onions, peppers, feta, and drizzled some garlic sauce on top that packs so much flavor.
We enjoyed kind of at room temperature, that’s why it’s so perfect for summer months!
You can also amp up the dish, by drizzling some tzatziki, harissa, or tahina. I opted for garlic sauce, because I had some on hand.
One of the best parts about this recipe (aside from the fact that it requires very little time to prepare) it’s healthy and nutritious.
The flatbread recipe is versatile to make any kind of flatbreads. I am going to share a Greek Pizza recipe using this flatbread for ultimate thin crust pizza. So, the flatbread recipe is a keeper.
Ready in no time, this Veggie Salad Hummus Flatbread is a tasty vegetarian lunch (or appetizer) that’s great to serve at gatherings.
Flatbread: Use this recipe or store-bought. Can be made in the oven or grill.
Hummus: Plain or this beetroot one to add more color and flavor to this recipe.
Spice Blend: Try Za’atar, Italian/Greek Seasoning, or for that matter any herby mix would be good.
Vegetables: I made a Greek salad but you can opt for more Mediterranean style by adding other veggies like artichokes, grilled zucchini etc.
For meal prepping, store the hummus and veggies into separate containers. When it’s time to assemble and serve, dress the veggies.
Greek Salad Hummus Flatbread
Ingredients
Flatbread
- 2 ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup lukewarm water 110 F
- 1 ½ tsp yeast
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt
Greek Salad
- 1 cucumber chopped
- 1 small- medium onion chopped
- 1 medium green or red bell pepper or mix
- 2 medium sized tomatoes chopped
- 1/3 cup approx. olives
- 1/2 tsp Greek seasoning or oregano
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tsp red wine vinegar or lemon juice
- 1/3 cup feta cheese
1 Cup Hummus
Instructions
Flatbread
- Take all ingredients of the flatbread and add lukewarm water and make a dough using stand mixer or with hands. Lightly oil the bowl and dough and let it rest covered in a warm place.
- Let it rest for two hours (covered)or until doubled in size. Once it is doubled, you can rest it overnight in the fridge or make the flatbreads immediately.
- Divide the dough into equal parts. You can easily do three parts. Make dough balls and let them rest covered for another 20-30 mins.
- Once ready, roll out dough into desired shape round or squarish. Punch dough in the middle with fork and bake at 450 F for about 7-9 mins. If you want it softer you can remove it earlier. For this recipe, I prefer slightly firm bread.
- Preheat the oven to 450°F. Brush each side of the flatbread with light oil, place on an ungreased sheet pan.
- Bake the flatbread until the edges are crisp, about 7 to 8 minutes. Cool slightly before adding toppings.
- Meanwhile, dress the salad in a bowl. Add 2 teaspoons of vinegar or lemon juice and 1/2 teaspoon of seasoning and 2 tbsp olive oil. Stir well to combine. Add feta cheese.
- To assemble: spread the hummus evenly over the flatbread and top with the chopped vegetable salad (gently press them into the hummus so they stay put). Then, sprinkle with extra fresh oregano, mint, or any other herb of your choice. Drizzle garlic sauce or any other sauce you will be adding on top. Cut into pieces and serve!
- You can also add some green like arugula of you wish.
