Ingredients:
4 oz. Lightlife® Smart Ground
½ tsp dried oregano
½ tsp cumin
Pinch of salt and pepper
8 oz hummus of choice
2oz roasted red pepper, diced small
2 oz kalamata olives, pitted and halved
2 oz cucumbers, diced small
2 oz cherry tomatoes, halved
Fresh dill for garnish
Fresh pitas for serving
Dill Yogurt:
½ cup plain plant-based yogurt
1 tbsp fresh dill, minced
Juice from ½ of a lemon
Pinch of salt and pepper
Preparation:
In a small bowl, mix all dill yogurt ingredients together. Cover and set aside in refrigerator.
In a medium size pan, add a small drizzle of olive oil on medium heat. Add Smart Ground and break up with a wooden spoon or spatula. Add oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Cook until evenly browned and warm, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a large shallow bowl or plate, build your dip. First, spread the hummus on the bottom of the bowl or plate. Then, add a layer of the dill yogurt. Add your Smart Ground crumbles next. Then top with red peppers, olives, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Garnish with a few small pieces of fresh dill. Serve with fresh pita slices or chips of choice.
