Ingredients

- 2 10 oz containers of hummus or homemade**
- 4 mini cucumbers
- 1/4 cup of feta crumbles (you can use regular or reduced fat)
- 1/2 red pepper
- 1/4 cup of large pitted olives
- 1/2 cup of grape tomatoes

Instructions
Instructions
- Start by cutting full pieces of pita bread into triangles (you can get 6-8 wedges per full pita) and drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of greek seasoning. Then, bake at 350 degrees for 8 minutes or until golden brown. When you remove the pita from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and let cool.
- Another option here would be to skip baking the pita all together, if you like cold pita. It's totally a preference thing, so do what you feel here.
- While waiting for the pita to toast in the oven, chop mini cucumbers, pepperoncini, black olives and red pepper. Then cut grape tomatoes in half. Set aside.
- Next, scoop hummus onto a large tray and use a spoon to create a divot through the middle, similar to the photo. Sprinkle with the chopped and halved veggies.
- Add crumbled feta, drizzle with olive oil and more greek seasoning, and garnish with a handful of toasted garbanzo beans.
- Then, add toasted pita points to the hummus board and it's ready to serve.
