Easy Hummus Dip with 7 Layers

Dips of all kinds have always been a favorite in my family. My husband is a huge fan, especially for football Sunday and any other big sporting event. We both enjoy all dips but I especially enjoy ones with all the delicious toppings and this layered hummus dip has just that.

Some of you may know that I really love recipes with hummus and, being raised in Spain, I love all the Mediterranean flavors this dip provides. Not only is this recipe perfect for game day, but it also is always a great appetizer for any party you throw or attend.

Bonus: it's super easy and quick to put together! If you happen to have any leftovers (which is not likely), this would be a great addition to a salad for your lunch or dinner the following day!

Ingredients

Below, I share what I included in this layered hummus dip and possible substitutions, but you’re free to add more of one thing and less of another:

• Hummus: store-bought or my stepdad's recipe for authentic Greek hummus.
• Crumbled feta: a classic Greek cheese, but you can use any other you have. Parmesan, cottage, and goat cheese make a great swap.
• Calamata olives: or any pitted olives you prefer.
• Roasted red peppers: from the store or made at home.
• Mild pepperoncini: optional for a note of heat.
• Tomato: any tomato adds freshness.
• Cucumber: another classic Mediterranean flavor.
• Fresh chopped oregano: or use dill instead.
