Introduction

This Greek 7 Layer Dip is a fresh and flavorful appetizer perfect for gatherings or a healthy snack. Combining creamy hummus with vibrant vegetables and tangy feta, it’s a crowd-pleaser that’s easy to prepare and full of Mediterranean flair.

The dish is a white rectangular ceramic baking dish filled with a three-layered dip. The bottom layer is light beige and creamy with a smooth texture. The middle layer is white, thick, and creamy, likely a yogurt or sour cream base with small bits visible within it. The top layer is made of chopped fresh vegetables and toppings: small red tomato pieces, bright green cucumber chunks, white crumbled cheese, and sliced dark purple olives scattered evenly across the surface. The dish is placed on a white marbled surface, with some golden toasted pita chips lying beside it photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

Ingredients

8 ounces hummus (store bought or homemade)
1 cup 0% fat Greek yogurt

1 clove garlic (finely minced)
1 tsp chopped fresh dill

Juice of 1/2 small lemon
Pinch kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper
2 tbsp red onion (minced)
1 cup English cucumber (about ½ large, ½-inch dice)

1 cup Roma tomato (seeded, ½-inch dice)
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1/4 cup Kalamata olives (sliced)

Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, combine Greek yogurt, minced garlic, chopped dill, lemon juice, a pinch of kosher salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Step 2: Using an 8”x8” or 7”x11” glass dish, spread the hummus evenly as the first layer.
Step 3: Spread the yogurt mixture over the hummus to create the second layer.

Step 4: Sprinkle the minced red onion evenly over the yogurt layer.
Step 5: Add the diced cucumber as the next layer, followed by the diced, seeded Roma tomatoes.
Step 6: Top with crumbled feta cheese and sliced Kalamata olives to finish the dip.

Step 7: Serve immediately with whole grain pita chips or baked corn chips for dipping.

Tips & Variations

For extra flavor, add a sprinkle of smoked paprika or crushed red pepper flakes over the top before serving.
Substitute Greek yogurt with a dairy-free yogurt for a vegan-friendly version.

Try adding chopped fresh mint or parsley for a fresh herbal twist.
Use fresh homemade hummus for a creamier, more personalized taste.

Storage

Store the dip covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Because the vegetables release moisture, it’s best enjoyed fresh. If needed, stir gently before serving to redistribute the flavors. Avoid freezing as the texture of the yogurt and vegetables may change.
