This Greek Hummus Plate is the perfect party appetizer but it also makes a great afternoon snack!
Does it look good? Be sure to pin it so you remember to try it out later. Or make it immediately. Both good options!
There no specific quantities for this recipe but here’s what you need:

I cannot put out an appetizer spread without some form of hummus, and this one looks great. I also like to cut up cucumbers, plop some hummus on each bite and sprinkle with some Lawry’s salt. 🙂 Always a crowd pleaser. Have a great night, Lindsay!
Heather Mason @NuttyNutrition says
yummy! This looks delish! That’s so smart to add the colorful veggies on top, because while hummus is delicious, the color leaves something to be desired… haha. I love the cilantro jalapeno hummus from Trader Joes!! This post reminds me I need to buy some!
Lindsay says
that seems to be a popular flavor with a lot of people 🙂 love it!
Linz @ Itz Linz says

Arman @ thebigmansworld says

Greek cuisine is one of my favorites actually. Personally I prefer pita bread the most and could eat that all day LOL!
Taca @ A Side Of Dessert says
Oh I saw this picture on instagram yesterday so I’m so glad you’ve shared it this morning! Thank you!
Lindsay says
woohoo! enjoy!
Susie @ Suzlyfe says
I actually make a pretty darn good hummus from just the chickpeas, garlic, and lemon (plus a few odds and ends as I am feeling). But recently I tried Cedars Beet and Scallion hummus, and that was amazing! Also, giardineria and hummus mixed is incredible
Lindsay says
beet and scallion does sound good!
Dixya @ Food, Pleasure, and Health says
this looks wonderful. I cant wait to try this for a party.
Erin @ The Spiffy Cookie says
One of my favorite hummus dips is very similar! Mine has a layer of cream cheese-Greek yogurt mixture on the bottom. I like that you used red bell pepper and balsamic on yours. Yum!
Hannah @ CleanEatingVeggieGirl says
Awesome idea, Lindsay! This makes me love hummus even more! I bet it is SO good with pita chips 🙂
Lindsay says
always a win with pita chips!
Elizabeth @ Enjoy Every Bite says
This looks so yummy!! I love Greek flavors and the simplicity of this appetizer. Can’t wait until I’m not pregnant so I can have feta again 🙂
Lisa @ RunWiki says
When I was 22 I spent a summer in Greece– one of my fondest memories was eating the hummus, yogurt with honey, and greek salads. My life in food… I love to recreate experiences, this reminds me of that. Sunset in Santorini anyone?
Lindsay says
yes please!
Megan @ Skinny Fitalicious says

Melissa @battleofmarathonblog says
I was in Greece last week (and am eating my way through Italy right now 😉 ), and I was SHOCKED that I was never served an ounce of hummus. Yogurt, sure, but no hummus in sight. Really makes me think that we have perhaps Americanized Greek food much like Chinese food! Or that hummus is more of a summer thing there.
Marlene says
Love this! Made it this week & the hubs & I tore it up! It was so refreshing. I even used it occasionally on my salads. Thanks!
Lindsay says
glad you like it!
Jeanna says
This is awesome! Totally renewed my interest in hummus. I’m not usually a huge hummus fan but my 2 yo and I ate this up.
Michelle says
I’ve been craving Mediterranean hummus bowls and had to try this when I saw you share it the other day. It has been the best quuck and easy lunch the past couple of days, and has definitely fed my craving. I was surprised how flavorful it is, even without a dressing. It was so easy to make! I’m looking forward to trying more of your recipes!
