Instructions
Prepare the feta olive salsa by combining the crumbled feta cheese, chopped Kalamata olives, cherry tomatoes, diced red onion, cucumber, and fresh parsley in a medium-sized bowl.
Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil and lemon juice over the mixture, and sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste. Mix gently to combine and set aside.
Warm the pita bread if desired by lightly toasting it in a dry skillet or wrapping it in foil and heating it in a low oven for a few minutes.
Spread approximately 1/4 cup of hummus evenly onto each pita bread, leaving a small border around the edges.
Top each pita with a generous portion of the prepared feta olive salsa, spreading it across the hummus layer.
Serve immediately as an open-faced sandwich or fold the pita in half for easier handling.
