8 Layers of Mediterranean Heaven

http://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/recipes/2439

Our friend Ash whipped up this Wholefoods.com find for New Years Eve and it was not only delicious, but, it appeared to be quite easy to make.

She was kind enough to omit the olives from her version [or perhaps she just couldn't find the can opener :)], and it was still fantastic without them.

So, without further ado, here is the recipe.

Ingredients:

• 1 (8-ounce) container of hummus.
• 1 cup firmly packed baby spinach, roughly chopped.
• 1 cup thinly sliced roasted red peppers, drained.
• 1 (6-ounce) jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained, and roughly chopped.
• 1 cup plain lowfat or nonfat Greek-style yogurt.
• 1/2 cup sliced pitted black olives, such as kalamata.
• 1/4 cup thinly sliced green onions.
• 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese.
• Pita chips.

Directions:

• Spread hummus evenly in the bottom of an 8-inch square dish.
• Scatter spinach over the top and press down lightly.
• Arrange peppers, then artichokes over the top.
• Drop yogurt in dollops over artichokes, then spread out to make an even layer.
• Sprinkle with onions, olives, and feta.
• Serve with pita chips.
