Ingredients

  • 2-1/2 cups roasted garlic hummus
  • 3/4 cup chopped roasted sweet red peppers
  • 1 cup fresh baby spinach, coarsely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh basil
  • 1 tablespoon coarsely chopped fresh mint
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 1/2 cup Greek olives, sliced
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • Assorted fresh vegetables or baked pita chips

Directions

  1. Spread hummus onto a 12-in. round serving platter; top with roasted peppers.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the spinach, lemon juice, oil, basil and mint. Using a slotted spoon, spoon spinach mixture over peppers. Top with cheese, olives and onion. Serve with vegetables or pita chips.
Tip: You can make homemade pita chips by cutting a package of pita bread into wedges. Toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon pepper and 1 teaspoon coarse salt.
