Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 large cucumber, thinly sliced
- 1 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 (15-ounce) can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/2 cup Kalamata olives, pitted
- 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
- 1 pita bread, warmed and cut into wedges
- 4 ounces hummus
- 4 ounces baba ghanoush
- 4 ounces tzatziki
- Assorted crackers or baguette slices
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the chickpeas, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion. Stir in the parsley and mint.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Pour this dressing over the chickpea mixture and toss to combine. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Place the hummus, baba ghanoush, and tzatziki in separate serving bowls or directly on your board. Drizzle extra olive oil on the hummus and baba ghanoush.
- Distribute the crumbled feta cheese across the serving platter, and scatter the Kalamata olives and toasted pine nuts around.
- Arrange the warmed pita bread wedges and assorted crackers or baguette slices on the board.
- Place your dip bowls among the ingredients and drizzle everything with extra virgin olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving.
Notes
Store leftovers separately in airtight containers. The chickpea salad will keep for about three days; the dips last up to a week.
