If you were wondering why I had Josh making pita chips earlier in this week, this is why! You probably thought I was going to make hummus, but that really scares me. If you know a super easy, delicious recipe for hummus then send it my way and maybe I’ll try it. But this time, I needed Josh in the kitchen while I was chopping veggies for this beauty.
If you can’t remember, I love Greek salad, especially on pizza. My love couldn’t be contained to just salad bowls and pizzas, it had to spread to delicious dips. This is perfect with Monday’s pita chips, on a sandwich (oooh, falafel anyone?), or on a chickpea taco. Uses are pretty endless, and I’d love to hear how you use it if you make it!
I omitted traditional tomato from my salsa and also didn’t include any onion. Feel free to add those in, if you’d like. I didn’t have any tomato on hand and the onion totally slipped my mind when I made this the first time, but I loved it that way. It didn’t have any overpowering flavors (like onion) and it wasn’t a wet mess from tomato.

[…] any and every social event is contingent on bringing this dip. True story. The other app was my Greek salsa with Josh’s pita chips. The actual dinner was butternut squash mac and cheese, the […]
Greek salsa!? Amazeballs!! I want this on everything, including on a regular spoon being shoveled at lightspeed into my mouth.
This looks fantastic! The pickled beets are a brilliant little twist! Yum! Wish I was eating it right now (and it’s only breakfast time!)! Oh – and one of my current fave hummus recipes is this Edamame Hummus. Inspired by Trader Joe’s version, it’s super quick, easy and healthy. Give it a try! Another use for those pita chips! http://www.twohealthykitchens.com/?p=1098
Thanks, Shelley! I’ll check it out 🙂

This is totally my kinda salsa! It looks like a great variation to the traditional Mexican-type salsa plus it would be perfect to set out at a party 🙂
This salsa looks so delicious! I love the flavor of Greek salads. (especially kalamata olives. <3) This would be totally fabulous on falafel!
Pinning!
Oh, and I love how you included the pita chips in the background. 🙂
Thanks, Abbie! I’m pretty obsessed with kalamata olives, too. Started with around 20 and only ten actually made it to the cutting board and salsa 😀
Such a unique and delicious looking salsa! I am loving the pickled beets! Perfect for homemade pita chips.
Thanks, Reeni!

Oh yum, this looks so good! I love Greek inspired dishes, especially with hummus. I actually think I could eat feta and greek olives forever and be just fine with it, lol.
This salad looks great! Love greek flavor and the addition of beets!
I LOVE greek salad. This looks awesome.
Hummus Shumus. I want this Greek Salsa all to myself.
This looks so delicious Kelly! I would eat that whole tray on its own in a single sitting.
Thanks, Todd. It took some seriously willpower to save it for pictures 🙂
I could eat that dip plain. It looks delicious!
I definitely ate a few big spoonfuls on its own! Thanks, Alex
This would be a hit at a party!
Ok, this looks way better than hummus!!! Super simple hummus – can of chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, and lemon juice – done! 🙂
How much do I use of each?
I am totally making this for us to keep on hand! We have so much cucumber in the fridge and I’d actually like it this way!
cumber is normally not one of my favs, but it’s so good in this! Let me know how you like it 🙂
