Anchored by hummus, tzatziki and olives, this Mediterranean dish starts by warming the pita in a dry pan or oven until soft and comes together in about 45 minutes -- the kind of easy recipe that earns a permanent spot in the rotation.

A 45-minute cook time that's mostly hands-off simmering or roasting.

An easy, forgiving method -- hard to get wrong on a first try.

Built around hummus, so the flavor comes from real ingredients, not a spice packet.

Method

1

Warm the pita in a dry pan or oven until soft and puffed, then cut into wedges.

2

Spoon the hummus and tzatziki into two shallow bowls, swirl the tops, and drizzle with olive oil and a sprinkle of za'atar.

3

Place the dip bowls at opposite corners of a large board - they anchor the spread.

4

Fill the space with the olives, tomatoes, cucumber, feta, and dolmades in separate little groups.

5

Tuck the warm pita wedges into a gap.

6

Keep colors and shapes next to each other for an inviting board.

7

Serve at room temperature so all the flavors shine, and let everyone graze.
