Directions
Step 1
Wash and prepare all vegetables. Dice the cucumber into small cubes, halve the cherry tomatoes, thinly slice the red onion, and roughly chop the Kalamata olives and fresh parsley.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cucumber, cherry tomatoes, red onion, olives, and feta cheese.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper to create the dressing.
Step 4
Pour the dressing over the vegetable mixture and toss well to coat evenly.
Step 5
Warm the pita bread slightly, either in a toaster, microwave, or on a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side.
Step 6
Cut each pita bread in half to create pockets.
Step 7
Spread a generous layer (about 2 tablespoons) of hummus inside each pita pocket.
Step 8
Fill each pita pocket with the prepared Greek salad mixture.
Step 9
Garnish with additional parsley or a sprinkle of feta cheese, if desired, and serve immediately.
