I think we all have a list of things we love. Hummus is on my list. This Mediterranean Naan Pizza is one of my favorite ways to use hummus.

I grew up eating hummus for as long as I can remember. My Grandma and Mom always had a batch or two ready for any family function, just one perk of being Lebanese I guess!

When I was younger hummus was not nearly as popular as it is today. I do not remember being able to go to the store and have my choice of so many flavors of hummus, let alone brands. Hummus is a staple in my house and you can always find a combination of homemade and store bought flavors in my fridge because we snack on that stuff constantly with pita, vegetables and pretzels.

Today’s Mediterranean Naan Pizza is such an easy recipe that you can have ready in under 15 minutes. It makes a great lunch or dinner. I like to cut it into bite sized pieces and serve it at parties as an appetizer too!

Recipe Ingredients

Here’s an overview of the simple ingredients we’re using. Jump to the recipe card below for exact ingredient amounts and printable instructions. 

• Hummus: The hummus is the star of the show. You can make your own like this Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, Lemon Hummus, or this Lebanese Hummus Recipe. You also can use your favorite store-bought hummus, but I suggest trying to make your own. Fresh is always best!
• Naan: Naan is what is used for the pizza. You can usually find the naan in the bread section of the grocery store. You also could use any flatbread you like or even pita bread to make pita pizzas.
• Vegetables: The vegetables on this naan pizza are a mix of tomatoes, fresh parsley and green onions along with cucumber. This combination makes a nice tabbouleh style salad.
• Spices: The spices are options but I love adding a sprinkle of sumac or za’atar to my naan pizza.

Ways to Modify this Greek Pizza

• Vegetables: The vegetables are a great addition to the flatbread. You also could add red bell pepper, red onion, sun-dried tomatoes, artichokes, capers, broccoli, radish or carrots.
• Cheese: I love adding feta cheese or goat cheese for creamy, tangy flavor. You also could add mozzarella cheese.
• Spices: The spices can take this flatbread to the next level. You can use Greek seasoning, oregano, paprika or chili powder.
• Spread: You can swap out the hummus for baba ghanoush, whipped feta spread or this white bean artichoke dip. You also could use a tzatziki sauce or a balsamic glaze.
• Olives: I love adding kalamata olives, green olives or black olives to this flatbread.
• Herbs: Add fresh herbs like fresh dill, parsley, basil or mint.

How to Make this Mediterranean Naan Pizza

Step 1: Create the Tabbouleh Salad: In a small bowl mix together the tomatoes, parsley, green onions, olive oil, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste.

Step 2: Toast Naan: Place the naan on a baking sheet. Bake the Naan according to the package (you want the Naan to be just crispy).

Step 3: Add Hummus: Remove the Naan and from the oven and spread the hummus evenly on each piece of Naan. Return to oven and heat for 1-2 minutes.

Step 4: Add Cucumbers and Spices: Remove from the oven and cover the hummus with a layer of cucumbers. Then spoon tabbouleh salad evenly on each Naan pizza so you cover the cucumbers {wait to put the tabbouleh over the pizza until you are ready to eat it or the naan will get soggy from the juices}.

Garnish with sumac or Za’atar and serve warm alongside a Greek Village Salad and Greek Chicken.

Storage Tips

Store leftovers in airtight container for up to 3 days. When you are ready to eat you can reheat in the oven on low or the air fryer. I do think this recipe is best eaten the day you make it.
