Instructions

  1. Wash and dry all produce. Quarter the cucumber lengthwise, then slice crosswise into ½-inch-thick pieces. Halve the grape tomatoes. Pick the dill fronds and roughly chop. Halve the lemon. Halve the pitas.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine the cucumber, tomatoes, pepitas, half the chopped dill, a generous drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and toss well.
  3. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream with the remaining dill and another squeeze of lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Toast the pita halves until warm and pliable. Spread a little hummus inside each pita half. Stuff with the cucumber salad, drizzle with the dill sauce and top with crumbled feta and hot sauce to taste. Serve immediately.

Recipe Tips

For extra crunch, toast the pepitas in a dry skillet for 1-2 minutes before adding to the salad.

If you prefer a milder sauce, reduce the hot sauce or omit it entirely.
