Ingredients
Units
- 1 recipe homemade hummus
- 1 recipe muhammara
- 1 recipe beet tzatziki
- 1/2 cup labneh
- 1 small block feta cheese, cubed
- 6 - 8 mini cucumbers, sliced into sticks
- 10 small radishes, quartered
- 1 cup grape tomatoes
- 8 ounces olives (use whatever is your favorite!)
- 8 store bought grape leaves
- 4 - 6 pita bread rounds
- fresh herbs, optional
Instructions
- If making homemade dips, prepare according to directions.
- On a large serving platter, use a large spoon to drop the hummus, muhammara, tzatiziki, and labneh into separate rounds throughout the board so that you’re creating negative space to nestle your other ingredients in. I also like to place the feta now as it is another large item.
- Slice up your veggies and arrange them around the dips.
- If using grape leaves or a prepared salad, position on the easily accessible edges of the mezze board.
- Place your pita bread or crackers into the remaining empty spots. Last fit the olives into any remaining spots.
- If desired, top with fresh mint, parsley, and cilantro to add some extra flavor!
- Devour! If you don’t finish your mezze board, you can wrap it in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for up to 5 days!
Notes
- Mezze platters are super customizable, so feel free to use whatever veggies, scooping vessels and dips you prefer!
- If you’re feeling lazy, you can always buy your dips from a local restaurant or the grocery sotre. If you’re in the Boston area I highly recommend Sofra Bakery.
