Ingredients
  

4 pieces of whole wheat flatbread

1 cup hummus (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 cucumber, thinly sliced

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

1 cup baby spinach or mixed greens

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved

1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped

1 lemon, juiced

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: 1 teaspoon dried oregano or za'atar for extra flavor

Instructions
 

Prepare the Vegetables: In a mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, cucumber, red bell pepper, red onion, and baby spinach. Drizzle with olive oil, lemon juice, salt, pepper, and oregano/za'atar if using. Toss gently to coat the veggies evenly.

    Spread the Hummus: Take a piece of flatbread and generously spread about 1/4 cup of hummus across its surface, leaving a small border at the edges.

      Layer the Fillings: On top of the hummus, add a handful of the mixed vegetable salad, followed by crumbled feta cheese and Kalamata olives. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top for a burst of flavor and color.

        Wrap and Serve: Carefully fold the flatbread in half like a sandwich. Alternatively, you can roll it up for a wrap-style serving. Repeat the process with the remaining flatbreads and ingredients.

          Garnish: If desired, drizzle a little extra olive oil or a squeeze of lemon over the top before serving. Cut the sandwiches in half for individual portions.

            Enjoy: Serve immediately with a side of extra hummus, chips, or a fresh side salad.
