Greek Dip Platter is a light and refreshing appetizer recipe with 7 layers of bold Greek flavors. Serve as a light lunch or dinner instead!
It is hot, hot, hot which makes diving into a refreshing Greek Dip Platter all the more enjoyable!
This chilled, herb and veggie-packed dip is the perfect summer appetizer, but also a fantastic light dinner or lunch.
The recipe is inspired by a cream cheese-based Mediterranean dip my Mom makes for parties all the time, but I swapped out the cream cheese for tangy Greek yogurt, and added a layer of silky-smooth roasted red pepper hummus on top.
Cooling cucumbers and tomatoes, salty kalamata olives and feta cheese, and fresh chopped parsley are sprinkled on top then everything’s scooped up with crackers and sliced veggies.
This is an awesome protein-packed, quick, easy, and no-heat required app or meal!
Start the Greek Dip Platter by choosing a deep plate with a lip, or a small baking dish.
Spread 6 oz plain Greek yogurt on the bottom of the plate.
Greek yogurt is thick and creamy, and provides awesome flavor and staying power to the dish due to its high protein content.
Next, dab Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, or your favorite flavor of hummus, on top then spread it around.
Top the yogurt and hummus with minced red onion, chopped cucumbers, chopped tomatoes, and chopped kalamata olives.
Finish with a sprinkling of feta cheese, and lots of chopped fresh parsley.
Serve with the dippers of your choice — I love dipping in with crackers, sliced cucumbers, celery stalks, and sliced carrots.
This dip is IT. Incredibly refreshing, and PACKED with flavor!

This looks wonderful! I could probably eat this every day for the rest of my life (and I’m not exaggerating!)All your recipes look amazing… I’m a big fan, which is evidenced by the vast number of things I’ve pinned so far from your blog. I need to get cooking!!
I made this dip last night for my family and it’s a keeper:) I definitely think it’s better with something thin and crunchy/crispy. I could not find the Triscuit thins so used regular Triscuits and it was “okay”….then ate it with tortilla chips and “oh my” it was perfect:)
I’ve made this about 4 times in the last week! I love it! Thank you for the great idea!
I tried this last night. It was so good! Delicious. I used Trader Joe’s Cilantro & Jalapeno Hummus. And you’re right, the Triscuit Thins are really good. Thanks for the recipe!
I am really looking forward to trying to veganize this recipe! What a great idea!
I made this for dinner tonight and my husband and I ate almost the whole thing! Thanks for the recipe!
1I think I will fix this for our dinner tomorrow night – looks extremely delish! Thanks so much for sharing all of this with us.
Haha I HATE roasted red peppers. And I married a Sicilian guy. Woops!
Hey try this one : 1 giant zucchini, sauteed until brown over med high heat with some oil and garlic. Or not sauteed. It probably doesn’t matter. Puree with a bunch of mint leaves (if you’re like me, you didn’t realize it’s a massive weed and are always trying to use it quick so it stops choking the life out of your other herbs) and a cup of greek yogurt. Salt pepper. NOM!
Delish dip.
What did we do before greek yogurt anyway?
I love no heat required recipes in the summer… what a wonderful idea!!!
