I’ve got a simple and delicious meal idea for you – Hummus Pita Pizzas! I love taking these for lunch or having them as a quick dinner! The best part is they are fully customizable based on whatever veggies you have hanging out the fridge.
Start with a toasted pita bread (any brand is fine but I like to use Joseph’s Pita Bread because they are only 1 Weight Watchers Smart Point), spread on your favorite hummus, then top with fresh veggies and feta cheese – so easy! As far as veggies go I like to use tomatoes, cucumber, and some sort of pepper. After that I just go for whatever I have in the fridge! Shredded carrots, roasted red peppers, olives, green onion, banana peppers, pickled onions, cabbage – all delicious! I also sprinkle it with a little za’atar for extra flavor.
If you don’t have za’atar in your spice cabinet I highly recommend picking some up – it’s a flavorful spice blend that’s used in Middle Eastern cooking. It goes great on grilled meats, sprinkled on hummus, pita bread, and yogurt (to use for dipping bread or meat). It’s a delicious way to kick up the flavor your dishes for no extra smart points and it’s easily one of the top five most used spices in our house!
We pretty much always have the ingredients for these on hand so they’re convenient to make any time – I keep the pita in the freezer and we always have a tub of hummus and feta. I just add any veggies we have and if I happen to have some meal prepped chicken I’ll throw it on top since it won’t add any extra Weight Watchers points. Easy peasy!
If you’re taking these for lunch just wrap up your pita bread (you can toast it at work or just eat it as is), pack a container of hummus and feta, put your chopped veggies in a separate container and then assemble when it’s time to eat!
The meal comes to just 5 Blue WW SmartPoints/6 Green WW SmartPoints. Enjoy!
- 1 pita bread (I used Josephs Pita for 1 Weight Watcher Smart Point)
- 3 tbsp hummus, any flavor
- Chopped veggies, whatever you'd like! I make sure to have tomato, cucumber, pepper, and green onion.
- Other great toppings: shredded carrots, roasted red peppers, olives, banana peppers, cabbage, pickled onions, roasted garlic
- ½ oz crumbled feta cheese
- 2 oz cooked chicken, diced, optional
- za'atar, optional
- If you want to toast your pita place the bread in a 350F oven for 10-12 minutes, checking often, until bread is toasted to your preference. I like mine crispy!
- Spread pita with 3 tbsp hummus and then top with the veggies of your choice.

Thanks for breaking down what each ingredient’s points are. I like to know how the points are affected if I leave something out (or more often, double up!). Thanks!

No problem! I like to do that for recipes like this just because brands vary so much – makes it a lot easier to calculate when you have to substitute something!
