Hummus Toast Zaatar (Printer-Friendly Layout)

Crispy bread gets slathered with hummus, sprinkled with za’atar and olive oil, then finished with juicy tomato and loads of feta for a zesty snack.

# Ingredients You'll Need:

→ Main Components

01 - 2 tablespoons hummus
02 - 1 slice whole wheat bread

→ Toppings

03 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
04 - 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, chopped
05 - 1 teaspoon lemon juice
06 - 1 tablespoon feta cheese
07 - 1 small tomato
08 - 1 tablespoon olive oil
09 - 1 teaspoon za'atar

# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Eat now while your toast's still nice and hot.
02 - Sprinkle that 1/4 teaspoon of ground pepper all over the top. Make sure it hits every corner.
03 - Toss your chopped parsley over the toast for a fresh bite.
04 - Pour your lemon juice over the toppings. It'll give everything a bright kick.
05 - Break up the feta and scatter it on top of your tomato slices.
06 - Pour a tablespoon of olive oil all over the hummus and tomatoes.
07 - Lay out your tomato slices across the za'atar and hummus combo.
08 - Rinse your tomato under cool water, then dry it off and slice it up thin. Take the seeds out if you want.
09 - Dust the top with za'atar, making sure every bit of hummus gets some.
10 - Take a spoon or butter knife and layer that hummus thickly over your toasted bread.
11 - Scoop your hummus into a small bowl to make it easier to spread.
12 - Drop your bread in a toaster or sizzle it in a skillet. Wait till it's good and crisp.
13 - Put your whole wheat slice on a plate or just use a cutting board—the flatter the better.

# Extra Tips and Tricks:

01 - Crispy bread brings out the crunch. Don’t skip toasting.
02 - Try flavored hummus like garlic or roasted pepper to switch it up.
03 - No za’atar? Mix oregano, thyme, and sesame seeds for something close.
04 - Want it dairy-free? Use vegan feta or leave the cheese off.
05 - Add sliced cucumber or olives on the side for that classic Mediterranean touch.
