    • ½ cup Kalamata Olives, pitted and roughly chopped

    • 1 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil, for drizzling


Instructions

Step 1: Choose Your Dish
Select a 2-quart glass dish, a 9-inch pie plate, or a trifle bowl. A clear glass dish is highly recommended to showcase the beautiful layers.

Step 2: Layer 1 – The Hummus
Spread the hummus evenly across the bottom of your chosen dish, creating a smooth, flat base.

Step 3: Layer 2 – The Creamy Yogurt
In a small bowl, combine the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, minced garlic, chopped dill, salt, and pepper. Stir until smooth. Carefully spread this mixture over the hummus layer, extending it to the edges of the dish.

Step 4: Layer 3 – The Cucumber
Sprinkle the finely diced and thoroughly patted-dry cucumber evenly over the yogurt layer.

Step 5: Layer 4 – The Red Onion
Sprinkle the finely minced red onion over the cucumber layer.

Step 6: Layer 5 – The Tomatoes
Distribute the seeded and diced tomatoes evenly over the red onion.

Step 7: Layer 6 – The Olives and Feta
Sprinkle the chopped Kalamata olives over the tomatoes, followed by an even, generous layer of the crumbled feta cheese.

Step 8: Layer 7 – The Garnish
Just before serving, sprinkle the top with the fresh chopped parsley or dill and finish with a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.

Step 9: Chill (Optional but Recommended)
Cover the dip and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This step makes a noticeable difference!
