Directions
7-Layer Dip – Greek Style, This is like the classic Mexican 7-layer dip, only in a Mediterranean way! I sometimes make this and leave the meat out – it is still good and vegetarian thataway! Serve with fresh-baked pita chips I estimated amounts, use more or less to your taste Serving size is approximate too , Great recipe! I made a vegan version of this for my sister’s bridal shower, which had a Mediterranean food theme Very cool to find this recipe, since I made the popular 7-layer taco dip for my other sister’s baby shower a few months ago You can’t go wrong with 7-layer dips as crowd pleasers!! To veganize: used Tofurky ground beef, cooked in refined (unscented/unflavored) coconut oil and seasoned as called for in the recipe I had to make my own tzatziki of course since ready-made vegan versions don’t exist (yet) Plain, unsweetened nondairy yogurt has now become impossible to find, for some reason, so I made a cucumber sauce with a nondairy sour cream/Vegenaise base (vegan version of this recipe – food com/recipe/cucumber-sauce-for-gyros-129930) Everything else in the recipe is naturally vegan, of course I also made some tofu feta to sprinkle on top (1 block of well-pressed tofu, crumbled and marinated in olive oil, lemon juice, basil, salt/pepper) used Sabra hummus (the best!) for the bottom layer I now see that I missed the mix-ins in Step 1! Darn, that sounds good, but luckily Sabra is a really rich hummus already I will have to make this again and give that a try though
My grandma’s 80+ year old friend said, I don’t know what I’m eating, but I love it! hahaha, I made this dip to take to a family gathering today and it was extremely well received used Sabra Classic hummus as, while DH and I love the roasted garlic kind, my family tends to be on the less adventuresome side used fresh oregano and marjoram from my garden while browning the lamb DH and I made no modifications to the recipe and served with bagel chips The gang loved it Thanks!
