Ingredients

• 4 pieces Gluten-free pita breads
• 1 cup Hummus
• 1 medium Cucumber
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 medium Red onion
• 0.5 cup Kalamata olives
• 0.75 cup Feta cheese
• 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Begin by preparing the vegetables. Peel the cucumber if desired, then dice it into small cubes. Halve the cherry tomatoes, and thinly slice the red onion. Slice the kalamata olives into quarters.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, combine the diced cucumber, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onion, and kalamata olives.

Step 3

Crumble the feta cheese and add it to the bowl of vegetables, along with the chopped fresh parsley.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the extra virgin olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create a vinaigrette.

Step 5

Pour the vinaigrette over the vegetable mixture. Gently toss everything together until evenly coated. Set aside for the flavors to meld while you prepare the pita breads.

Step 6

Warm the gluten-free pita breads according to package instructions, either in an oven or a microwave.

Step 7

Carefully cut a pocket into each pita bread.

Step 8

Spread about 2 tablespoons of hummus inside each pocket, ensuring the inside surface is covered.

Step 9

Stuff each pita pocket with the prepared vegetable mixture, dividing it equally between the pitas.

Step 10

Serve the stuffed pitas immediately for a fresh and satisfying meal.
