Greek salad with hummus and pita

On Friday it was hot here, probably close to 100F. Tomorrow is supposed to be hotter so there is very little actual cooking going on. Nonetheless we were able to make a dinner that we all enjoyed.

My Greek salad started with a layer of assorted lettuces and herbs (fresh oregano and mint), then there was a layer of cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red onion, bell pepper, feta, pepperoncini, and olives. This was all dressed simply with olive oil and vinegar. In the center I put a scoop of hummus with jalapeños and served whole wheat pita on the side.

I put all the components out like a buffet and each of us fashioned our own salads. I find doing it this way makes everyone happy. When dinner was over there was not a scrap left.
