Equipment

  • Lidded container

Method
 

  1. Start by grabbing a lidded container, ideally 8 ounces, to layer your ingredients. This size is perfect for individual servings.
  2. Begin with about 2 tablespoons of hummus. Spread it evenly along the bottom of your container, creating a creamy base.
  3. Next, sprinkle on the crumbled feta. This layer brings a salty punch that pairs perfectly with the hummus.
  4. Now, add the chopped Kalamata olives. These bring a briny flavor that enhances the Mediterranean essence of your cups.
  5. Layer on the chopped roasted red peppers. Their sweetness and smokiness add depth and excitement to the dish.
  6. If you’re feeling adventurous, add a layer of sliced pepperoncini for a hint of spice. This step is optional but highly recommended!
  7. Next, sprinkle in the diced tomato. This adds fresh juiciness that elevates the overall flavor profile.
  8. Follow with the diced cucumber. Its crisp texture is refreshing and offsets the creaminess of the hummus.
  9. Finally, garnish with fresh chopped oregano. This herb adds an aromatic finish that ties all the flavors together beautifully.
  10. Serve your 7 Layer Greek Snack Cups with pita chips for dipping or close the lid and store them in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh for up to three days.
  11. Before you head out, remember to take your cup out of the fridge. Pack it in an insulated lunch bag with an ice pack to keep it cool and refreshing!
  12. Enjoy your layered snack as a quick meal or a delightful appetizer!
