Tips:

Use store-bought or homemade flatbread: Naan pita or lavash all work well as the base

Pre-toast for crispiness: Pre-baking the flatbread for a few minutes helps it stay crisp under the toppings

Pat veggies dry: Especially cucumbers and roasted red peppers to avoid sogginess

Customize hummus: Try roasted garlic red pepper or lemon hummus for added flavor

Serve immediately: Best enjoyed fresh while the flatbread is warm and crisp

Variations:

Add protein: Top with grilled chicken chickpeas or falafel for a more filling meal

Make it vegan: Omit feta or use a plant-based cheese alternative

Switch the spread: Replace hummus with tzatziki baba ganoush or even whipped feta

Go raw: Skip the second bake and serve cold for a crisp and refreshing flatbread

Spice it up: Add a drizzle of hot sauce chili flakes or harissa for heat
