Ingredients

Tzatziki Cream Cheese Dip

8 oz Cream Cheese Softened
½ English Cucumber peeled
½ cup Plain Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill Finely chopped
2 Garlic Cloves Pressed
2 teaspoon Lemon Juice
Salt and Ground Black Pepper to taste

Greek “Salsa”

½ English Cucumber Finely chopped
½ cup Cherry Tomatoes Quartered
½ cup Kalamata Olives sliced
¼ cup Chopped Red Onion
1 tablespoon Fresh Dill Finely chopped
Salt and Ground Black Pepper to taste

Assembly:

1 cup Hummus
¼ cup Crumbled Feta
Green Onions sliced
Fresh parsley chopped

Instructions

Tzatziki Cream Cheese Dip

In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
Finely shred the cucumber, then squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
Add the drained cucumber to the cream cheese, along with the yogurt, dill, garlic, and lemon juice.
Beat well to combine, season with salt and pepper, to taste. Set aside.

Greek “Salsa”

In a separate bowl, combine the prepared cucumber, tomatoes, olives, red onion and dill.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Assembly:

Spread Tzatziki dip on the bottom of your serving dish, pie plate, or 8 x 8 baking dish.
Whip the hummus to soften it, then spoon over the tzatziki cream cheese dip.
Using an offset spatula or back of a spoon, gently smooth hummus over the cucumber dip, leaving a bit of a border around the outer edge.
Spoon the Greek “Salsa” over top of the hummus, again leaving a bit of a border to show the lower layers.
Top with feta, green onions, and parsley, serve immediately with a selection of pita, naan, tortilla chips, and/or other dippers of choice.

Notes

Make ahead: You can assemble the tzatziki and hummus layers, and wrap with plastic wrap until you’re ready to serve.

You can also separately make the vegetable and olive mixture ahead - I recommend storing it separately, mostly for aesthetic purposes. Add the salsa just before you’re ready to serve it, then top with the cheese and greens.
