Mediterranean Plate
with hummus and mint & cucumber tzatziki
This meal was inspired by an old cooking lesson student of mine. She was a mom of two that asked me to come up with ideas for the quickest meal possible. This is definitely more of an "assembly" meal than a cooking meal, but there are some nights where we need that kind of convenience

Super quick and a good combo of flavors! We also cut up some leftover cheese (fontina) from the Mediterranean turkey burgers earlier this week. Next time I would cut the tzatziki amount in half -- seemed like too much compared to the rest of the plates.
0 HelpfulAbsolutely loved this. The only change I made was that I roasted my own chicken. The perfect light dinner for a summer evening.
0 HelpfulSuch an easy meal to put together. Perfect for nights where I don't have much time to cook between work and class!
0 HelpfulLove hummus so much. Would love to see a recipe for making hummus on prep day. First time with tzatziki and I liked it, but will chop cucumber smaller next time. yum!
