Ingredients

• 1 cup Chickpeas (canned, drained and rinsed)
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons Tahini
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 3 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 4 pieces Pita bread
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Dried parsley
• 2 cups Vegetables for serving (e.g., carrots, celery, cucumbers, bell peppers)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

To make the hummus-inspired dip, add chickpeas, Greek yogurt, tahini, lemon juice, minced garlic, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper to a food processor.

Step 3

Blend the mixture until smooth and creamy. If the consistency is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until desired texture is achieved.

Step 4

Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Optionally, garnish with a sprinkle of cumin or paprika for extra flavor.

Step 5

For the pita chips, cut each pita bread into 8 triangular pieces and place them on a baking sheet in a single layer.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the garlic powder, dried parsley, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Brush this mixture onto both sides of each pita triangle.

Step 7

Bake the pita chips in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Flip them halfway through baking for even crispness.

Step 8

Remove the baked chips from the oven and allow them to cool slightly.

Step 9

Arrange the garlic pita chips and an assortment of sliced vegetables around the dip for serving.

Step 10

Enjoy your hummus-inspired veggie dip with garlic pita chips!
