Hummus, Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Red Onion and Pomegranate Molasses in Pita Pockets
Ingredients
- Hummus, Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Red Onion and Pomegranate Molasses in Pita Pockets
- This is a nice fresh appetizer or sandwich and you can use mini pita bread or regular sized pita. I like to use Persian cucumbers because they have less seeds than English cucumbers. You can add crumbled feta cheese to the salad mixture and the pomegranate molasses gives a nice sweet and sour kick to the mixture. You can also use balsamic glaze instead of the pomegranate molasses.
- Makes 24 appetizers
- 3 Persian cucumbers or 1 English cucumber, thinly sliced and drained
- ½ pint cherry tomatoes, washed and cut in half or fourths
- ½ red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh oregano, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- salt and pepper to taste
- pomegranate molasses or balsamic glaze
- ¾ cup hummus
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese – optional
- 12 mini pita, cut in half or 6 pita cut in half for larger sandwiches
Instructions
In a bowl, add all ingredients except the pomegranate molasses, hummus and pita bread and mix well.
Put hummus in a piping bag or a freezer bag and cut a corner off and pipe some hummus into each pita. Add some of the salad mixture to the pita and drizzle some pomegranate molasses over each pita and serve.
