How to Make 7 Layer Greek Hummus Dip

Step 1: Prepare the Yogurt Layer

In a small bowl, stir together the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, oregano, and garlic powder until smooth and creamy.

Tip: Pat the yogurt dry with paper towels if it’s watery to keep the dip from becoming runny.

Step 2: Spread the Hummus

Spread the hummus evenly across the bottom of a pie dish or shallow serving platter.

Use the back of a spoon to create an even layer all the way to the edges.

Step 3: Add the Yogurt Layer

Carefully spread the seasoned Greek yogurt over the hummus.

Work gently so the two layers remain separate.

Step 4: Layer the Vegetables

Evenly sprinkle over:

• Diced cucumber
• Tomatoes
• Red onion

Drain the tomatoes well before adding to prevent excess moisture.

Step 5: Add the Cheese

Sprinkle the crumbled feta evenly over the vegetables.

The salty feta pairs perfectly with the creamy hummus.

Step 6: Finish with Olives and Herbs

Top with:

• Sliced Kalamata olives
• Fresh parsley
• Fresh dill (optional)

The herbs brighten the entire dip and make it look extra fresh.

Step 7: Chill and Serve

Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes before serving if time allows.

Serve with pita chips, pita bread, crackers, or fresh vegetables.
