The Perfect Snack

by anutritionisteats on July 22, 2009

As you have probably noticed by now, flavors from the Mediterranean are some of my favorite. It is all the more reason to travel – ever since I visited Greece I seem to sneak those classic Med flavors into everything! Here is a picture from Githio, a little coastal town that we visited.  Love Greece.

Anyway, onto the snack. Cucumbers topped with hummus and tapenade. I could eat this all day. One of my favorite combo’s combining vegetables, protein, fiber and good fats. It works for me!

Then I tried a twist on the old favorite…I toasted a tortilla (French Meadow Bakery’s Fat Flush that is sprouted & flourless and my favorite) in the oven until crispy, topped with hummus, a tomato slice and some tapenade. It. Was. Pure. Heaven.

PS. I’m watching Mama Mia and REALLY missing Greece! :) (and singing along, I’ll admit to that)
