Ingredients

• 2 slices of crusty whole-grain or sourdough bread

• 1/2 cup classic hummus

• 1/4 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered

• 1/4 cup cucumber, finely diced

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 1 tsp Za’atar or dried oregano

• A pinch of red pepper flakes (optional, for mild heat)

• Fresh parsley or cilantro for garnish

Instructions

1. Toast the Bread: Toast your bread slices until they are golden brown and crisp enough to hold the toppings.

2. Spread the Base: Slather a generous, thick layer of hummus evenly across each slice of warm toast.

3. Layer the Veggies: Top the hummus with the diced cucumbers and quartered cherry tomatoes, distributing them evenly.

4. Season and Garnish: Drizzle the olive oil over the top. Sprinkle with Za’atar, a pinch of red pepper flakes, and fresh herbs. Serve immediately while warm.
