Ingredients You’ll Need for Layer Greek Dip

• Hummus – Use store-bought or homemade hummus. This recipe for homemade hummus is quick and easy.
• Tzatziki Sauce – Tzatziki sauce is a tangy yogurt sauce with dill and cucumber. This is my recipe for homemade tzatziki.
• Tomatoes – Diced cherry tomatoes are best, but any tomato works.
• Cucumbers – Dice up a cucumber for a little added crunch.
• Greek vinaigrette – The vinaigrette adds more flavor to the veggies, and to the dip overall. It’s the perfect tangy balance of flavor.
• Feta cheese – No Greek-inspired recipe is complete without some Feta cheese crumbled on top!
• Pita chips – These are the best chips for this Greek dip. They are thick, crunchy, and the perfect taste complement.

How to Make Layer Greek Dip

Layer 1 – Start the first layer of this Layer Greek Dip by spreading the hummus over the bottom of a glass serving dish. It doesn’t have to be glass, but it’s an added bonus to be able to see the layers! I prefer to make my own hummus because it is quick, easy, and inexpensive. Here is my homemade hummus recipe.

Layer 2 – The second layer of this Greek dip is tzatziki sauce. You can find tzatziki sauces in most grocery stores. Check the aisle for refrigerated dressings or near the hummus. I also prefer just to make my own because it’s pretty simple. Here is my recipe for homemade tzatziki sauce.

Spread the tzatziki over the hummus. Then start prepping for Layer #3.

Layer 3 – The next layer is a marinated tomato and cucumber mixture. Dice one cucumber, which depending on the size of your cucumber will be about 1-2 cups. Then quarter 10 ounces of grape tomatoes. Add them to a separate bowl. Pour 1/2 a cup of Greek Vinaigrette dressing over the tomato and cucumber and mix until everything is thoroughly coated. Any olive oil and balsamic-based vinaigrette can be used here. My personal favorite is the Organicville Olive Oil and Balsamic Vinaigrette. It’s usually in the produce section of the grocery store with the refrigerated dressings. Pour the cucumber and tomato over the tzatziki.

Layer 4 – Next, add 4 ounces of crumbled feta cheese. Obviously, you can either use pre-crumbled feta or crumble a block of cheese. It’s up to you. I use whichever I have on hand.

Lastly, you can garnish this dip with sliced black olives. I am not a fan of olives, so I don’t add them to my Greek dip, but you do you Boo. 

What Chips Pair Best with This Dip?

I think the best chips to serve with Stacy’s Simply Naked Baked Pita chips. They make it easier to scoop up all the layers of the dip, so you experience all of the flavors with each bite. We also eat this dip with pretzel chips fairly often.

Turn It Into Dinner!

And if you are looking for an easy dinner, you could serve this dip with a few pitas (maybe add some grilled chicken) and you’ve got a quick, delicious meal.
