Ingredients

• 4 pieces Whole wheat pita bread
• 1 cup Hummus
• 1 medium English cucumber
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.25 medium Red onion
• 0.5 cup Kalamata olives

• 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt

Directions

Step 1

Wash and prepare all vegetables. Dice the cucumber into small cubes, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and roughly chop the Kalamata olives and fresh parsley.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, olives, and feta cheese.

Step 3

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

Step 4

Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss well to coat evenly.

Step 5

Warm the pita bread slightly, either in a toaster, microwave, or on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side.

Step 6

Cut each pita bread in half to create pockets.

Step 7

Spread a generous layer (about 2 tablespoons) of hummus inside each pita pocket.

Step 8

Fill each pita pocket with the prepared Greek salad mixture.

Step 9

Garnish with additional parsley or a sprinkle of feta cheese, if desired, and serve immediately.
