Ingredients
Diced Veggie Salad
- ½ medium yellow bell pepper diced small
- 1/16 medium red onion diced small
- 1 medium Persian cucumber or ½ medium English cucumber, diced small
- ⅓ Cup grape tomatoes chopped small
- ½ Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- ½ Tablespoon Champagne vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
Hummus
- ¼ Cup chickpea liquid (aquafaba) from can
- 1 can chickpeas
- 1 ½ Tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 ½ Tablespoons tahini paste
- 1 clove garlic
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil plus about 1 Tablespoon extra for topping
- ground sumac to sprinkle on top - optional
Other Accompaniments
- 4 ounces feta cheese cut into cubes
- 2 whole grain pitas cut into small triangles, warmed if desired
- ¼ Cup toasted pine nuts
- ¼ Cup toasted chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Make Diced Veggie Salad: combine all Diced Veggie Salad ingredients in a small bowl. Stir with wooden spoon to distribute ingredients evenly. Set aside.
- Make Hummus: add all Hummus ingredients except ground sumac, to food processor bowl. Blend until smooth. Scrape into a bowl, make a shallow well in middle of hummus and add about 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle with ground sumac, if using.
- Prepare board: Place Diced Veggie Salad bowl and Hummus bowl onto a board. Surround these with the Other Accompaniments listed.
Notes
- Make sure your Italian seasoning does not contain salt or fillers, just herbs and spices.
- I like to use traditional feta- one that is made with sheep and/or goat’s milk.
- In place of the nuts listed, I sometimes get fancy and make the Toasted Nuts from the Moroccan Spiced Salad recipe.
- For flavor variation, I sometimes add diced roasted red bell peppers or pesto to the top of the hummus.
