Hummus and tzatziki with homemade naan (I didn’t want pitas), and a cucumber, carrot and tomato salad.

The only thing I had to buy for this was cucumber and tomato as I had the rest on hand. Or I thought I did. All out of olive oil before even finishing the hummus. So that was finished with peanut oil. But that’s almost out too. So the salad had to use bacon grease. And we are out of kalamata olives.

Cost per person, $2.25

    There is definitely a difference between Greek pita and US store bought pita. The real thing is closer to naan. Then again so is a Taco Bell gordita shell.

      Yeah, growing up in an Italian/Greek area all my Greek friends’ parents always served pita that was basically naan so I’m always confused to see people use (what to me is) Lebanese pita. Might be a regional thing that they were all from the same place?
