GREEK LAYERED DIP WITH PITA CHIPS (shared by Michelle)
INGREDIENTS-
1 14 ounce package pita bread
Olive Oil cooking spray
4 tsp greek seasoning
1 pound ground lamb (I used ground turkey)
1 tsp garlic salt
1 16 ounce container prepared hummus
1 1/2 cups tzatziki (gyro sauce)
1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce
2 medium roma tomatoes, diced
1/2 cup diced red onion
1/2 cup kalamata olives, chopped
1 4 ounce container crumbled feta cheese (I used fat-free)
DIRECTIONS-
1. Preheat oven to 375. Line 1 or 2 baking sheets with foil. Cut the pita rounds into eighths (I think Lara cut them in fours). Split each piece in 2 and place on the prepared baking sheet(s)., with inside of the bread facing up. Spray with the olive oil cooking spray and sprinkle with 2 tsp of the greek seasoning. Bake 7 to 10 minutes, or until golden.
2. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, brown the ground lamb (turkey) with garlic salt and the remaining 2 tsp greek seasoning. Drain and set aside. In a shallow 1 1/2 quart dish, spread the hummus on the bottom on the bottom. Top with a layer of ground lamb (turkey), then the tzatziki. Layer with the lettuce, tomatoes, onion, olives and feta. Serve dip at room temperature with pita chips.
Enjoy!
