Ingredients
  

1 can (15 oz) chickpeas, drained and rinsed

1/4 cup tahini (sesame seed paste)

2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling

1 lemon, juiced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Salt, to taste

1/4 cup Greek yogurt

1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, diced

1/4 cup cucumber, diced

1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Fresh parsley, for garnish

Optional: Pita bread or veggie sticks for serving

Instructions
 

In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy. If the mixture is too thick, add a tablespoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and use the back of a spoon to create a well in the center.

      Spread the Greek yogurt evenly in the well you created in the hummus.

        Top the hummus with the diced cherry tomatoes, cucumber, chopped Kalamata olives, and crumbled feta cheese. Drizzle a bit of olive oil over the top for added richness and flavor.

          Garnish with fresh parsley or mint for a pop of color.

            Serve with pita bread, pita chips, or fresh veggie sticks for dipping.
