A quick and easy Mediterranean-inspired snack featuring crispy pita chips topped with fresh veggies, feta cheese, and a creamy homemade tzatziki sauce. Perfect for casual gatherings or a satisfying late-night treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4–5 pita breads, cut into triangles and toasted until crisp
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • ½ cup kalamata olives, pitted and sliced
  • 1 medium cucumber, diced
  • ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced (optional)
  • ½ cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • For the Tzatziki Sauce:
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (full-fat preferred)
  • ½ cucumber, finely grated and drained
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Cut pita breads into bite-size triangles. Spread on a baking sheet, drizzle lightly with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt. Bake for 10-12 minutes until golden and crisp, flipping halfway through.
  2. While chips bake, grate half a cucumber finely. Place grated cucumber in a clean towel and squeeze out excess water.
  3. In a bowl, combine Greek yogurt, drained cucumber, minced garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, and chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Chill in fridge.
  4. Halve cherry tomatoes, slice kalamata olives, dice cucumber, and thinly slice red onion. Toss gently with a pinch of salt and a splash of olive oil.
  5. Spread toasted pita chips on a large serving platter. Evenly distribute veggie mix over chips. Crumble feta on top, then spoon dollops of tzatziki across everything. Sprinkle chopped parsley to finish.
  6. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of warm chips and cool tzatziki. Keep chips and toppings separate if not serving right away.

Notes

Drain grated cucumber well to avoid watery tzatziki. Flip pita chips halfway through baking for even toasting. Use fresh dill for best flavor or reduce dried dill amount. For crispier chips, air fry at 400°F for 5-7 minutes. Serve immediately to prevent sogginess. Store tzatziki and toppings separately from chips.
