Ingredients

Scale

Flatbread Base

  • 2 flatbreads or naan

Toppings

  • 1 cup hummus
  • 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1/4 cup cucumber, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup red onion, thinly sliced

Herb Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat or Warm Flatbreads: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) or alternatively warm the flatbreads in a skillet over medium heat. This helps make the flatbread soft and ready for topping.
  2. Spread the Hummus: Generously spread an even layer of hummus over each flatbread to create a creamy base that holds all the toppings beautifully.
  3. Add Fresh Vegetables: Top the hummus with halved cherry tomatoes, thinly sliced cucumber, and red onion for a combination of fresh, crisp textures and vibrant colors.
  4. Prepare Herb Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, chopped parsley, chopped mint, salt, and black pepper to create a bright and flavorful dressing.
  5. Drizzle and Finish: Drizzle the prepared herb dressing evenly over the flatbreads to enhance the flavors and add a zesty finish.
  6. Slice and Serve: Slice the flatbreads into portions and serve immediately while warm or at room temperature to enjoy the best taste and texture.

Notes

  • Use store-bought hummus for convenience or homemade for fresher taste.
  • Flatbreads can be warmed in the oven or skillet depending on your preference.
  • Feel free to swap fresh herbs according to availability—cilantro or basil works well too.
  • Add a sprinkle of feta cheese for extra richness if desired.
  • This recipe is great as a light lunch, snack, or appetizer.
