Halloween Hummus Dip

INGREDIENTS

1. 2 (10 oz) containers hummus (or 2–3 cups homemade)

2. 3 cups finely chopped romaine lettuce

3. 2 cups diced tomato

4. 1 cup finely diced bell pepper

5. 1 cup chopped cucumber (peeled/seeded)

6. ¼ cup sliced black olives (optional)

7. ¼ cup Greek yogurt (or tzatziki)

8. ½–1 cup crumbled feta cheese

9. ¼ cup chopped green onion

10. Dippers: carrot sticks, celery sticks, sliced bell pepper, cucumber, pita wedges, or pita chips.

    *Feel free to adjust spices to fit your tastebuds

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Base: Spread hummus in a thin, even layer on a large serving platter.

2. Spiderweb: Spoon Greek yogurt into a piping bag (or plastic bag with tip cut). Pipe a spiderweb design: start with intersecting lines, then connect them with curved lines to form the web.

3. Veggie Layers: Surround the hummus with chopped romaine, then layer tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and olives.

4. Finish: Sprinkle feta and green onion around the edges.

5. Spooky Touch: Add a few plastic spider rings on top for Halloween flair. Or get creative with olive slicing and placement!

6. Serve: Arrange dippers (pita, veggies) around the platter for easy grabbing.
