These Greek Nachos topped with hummus became my dinner last week… Rick was out of town, and I didn’t feel like cooking an entire meal just for myself, so I set out to do some snacking instead… along with a little bit Real Housewives binge watching…

Back to these beauties ↓ ↓ ↓

Mediterranean Nachos

I’ve been pondering nachos a lot lately. There are just so many variations out there.

For example, a couple summers back, while visiting my mom in New York, we visited a restaurant on Lake Chautauqua that served up Italian Nachos. They were topped with alfredo sauce, tomatoes and ground beef. So yummy! I’ve definitely been wanting to recreate those at home.

And then there are the Poke Nachos – delicate wonton chips topped with ahi tuna, green onions and creamy spicy mayo.

And we can’t forget about these amazing Irish Nachos. Thin sliced tomatoes are topped with all the traditional toppings like cheese, sour cream, and fresh pico de gallo.

Tonight, I let my fridge do the dictating. And came up with these Greek style nachos.

I had some fresh pitas on hand, along with some creamy hummus, and even some Kalamata olives and feta cheese.

The pita chips are simple. I just use some kitchen shears, or a large knife, to cut the pita bread into wedges. A drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkling of spices – cumin being my particular favorite – and salt and pepper, bake until they’re golden and then get ready to do some topping.

You can also use store-bought pita chips in this recipe. Or, try these Air Fryer Pita Chips!

I put a huge dollop of hummus in the middle of the plate. Because, for me, the hummus is the star of the show. Creamy, tangy and the perfect way to get all those other bits to stick to your pita chips.

Toppings for Greek Nachos

  • Hummus
  • Feta Cheese – Or, swap in some whipped feta!
  • Kalamata Olives
  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Pepperoncinis
  • Red Onion – Or, quick pickled onions!
  • Parsley

Variations

  • Add some protein to your nachos by topping them with some browned ground lamb or sliced cooked greek marinated chicken breasts.
  • Swap the tzatziki sauce for this yummy yogurt tahini sauce.
  • Sprinkle on some fresh dill or mint for a vibrant punch.

Erin’s wine pairings

  • The citrus and grassy, herbal notes of Sauvignon Blanc will pair nicely with the briny pepperoncini and fresh parsley on these Mediterranean Nachos.
  • Another fun wine pairing option is a Vinho Verde – Its slight effervescence is a nice compliment to the creamy hummus.
