For the Base:
- 2 large naan breads or pita rounds (whole wheat or regular)
- 4 tablespoons hummus (classic, roasted garlic, or red pepper)
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil, plus more for drizzling
For the Mediterranean Toppings:
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tablespoons red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
- 1 small cucumber, diced (optional)
For the Finishing Touches:
- Fresh herbs (basil, parsley, or oregano)
- Pinch of za’atar spice blend (optional)
- Freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat Your Broiler: Position a rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat your broiler to high.
- Prepare Your Base: Place the naan or pita rounds on a baking sheet. Spread each with 2 tablespoons of hummus, creating an even layer all the way to the edges.
- Build Your Mediterranean Palette: Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes, olives, and red onion (if using) evenly across both breads. Crumble the feta cheese over everything.
- Add a Touch of Richness: Drizzle each pizza lightly with olive oil to help everything meld together beautifully.
- Broil to Perfection: Slide the baking sheet under the broiler for 3-4 minutes, watching carefully. You’re looking for the edges to turn golden brown and the feta to soften slightly.
- Finish with Freshness: Remove from the oven and immediately top with diced cucumber (if using), fresh herbs, and a sprinkle of za’atar if desired.
- Serve Immediately: Cut each pizza into wedges and enjoy while still warm.
