Sometimes you just don’t have the time to make a dish from scratch. When that happens, it’s nice to have a recipe that elevates ready-to-eat, store-bought foods. Here’s an easy, tasty and pretty recipe for a hummus plate.

Harvest Hummus

TO MAKE THE HUMMUS BATCH

10 oz Store bought Hummus (the brand we use is Kronos)

2 TBS Roasted garlic paste (can be store bought, we roast in-house)

2 TSP GSPC (garlic, salt, pepper, coriander — see mixture ratios below)

Juice of 1⁄4 Lemon

Mix all ingredients well and allow to set in the refrigerator for 3 hours before serving.

GARLIC, SALT, PEPPER, CORIANDER COMBO

(Yield 1 Cup)

1⁄2 Cup Salt
1⁄4 Cup Granulated Garlic
1⁄4 Cup Coriander
2 Tbsp Course Black Pepper

HUMMUS PLATING

8 oz hummus
4-5 heirloom tomatoes cut in half 5-6 kalamata olives
1/4 seedless cucumber sliced
2 oz crumbled feta
1/2 warm pita bread.

TO BUILD THE PLATE

Spread hummus on the plate, and arrange vegetables over half the hummus. Crumble the feta over the vegetables and drizzle the olive oil over the hummus.

Finish with fresh zest of lemon.
