It’s hard to get much quicker than this little weeknight treat. It’s so easy I’m not sure it actually qualifies as a recipe, but here it goes anyway.
I buy hummus from a stand at farmer’s market a pretty regular basis. With so many varieties there is always a new one to try. But beyond the dipping extravaganza, who knew that it would work just great as a pizza topping? Well now we know. Combined with a pita and Greeky sorts of toppings it was just lovely. And pretty healthy too, gotta like that!

Quickie Greek Pizza
1 Greek style pita
2-3 tbsp. hummus, whatever variety you like best
Kalamata olives
Sun-dried tomatoes (I usually use the kind packed in olive oil)
1 tsp. pine nuts
Feta, mozzarella or queso fresco
As you can see from my stellar measurements here, I usually don’t measure anything. Simply spread the hummus over the pita and sprinkle toppings on in whatever quantity you like! Crumble some cheese on top and grind a bit of pepper on top.
Now of course you could just eat it like this. But if you want it hot and crispy, cook it!
For a nice crisp crust, I cooked mine right on the oven rack. About 10 minutes at 375˚ or until it’s melted and crispy on the bottom.
If you want it less crispy, put it on a pan first and don’t cook it as long.
