No recipe. No measurements. Just a truly delicious appetizer or snack.
If you love olives and you love hummus (well, who doesn’t love hummus?!), say hello to your new favorite appetizer. It’s salty, it’s creamy, it’s fresh, it’s zesty and it’s so damn tasty. Plus, it couldn’t be any easier.
This healthy appetizer requires just 5 simple ingredients. And yes, I’m counting hummus as an ingredient. Because if you are anything like me, you might already have a jar of homemade hummus in your fridge. And if you don’t, you can use storebought (no judgement).
I’m not sharing a recipe today, I don’t know the exact measurements for these yummy little bites, but trust me, you don’t need them. Just fill a Ziploc bag (or a piping bag) with a good amount of hummus and start filling your favorite olives. How many? As many as you want. Once they are filled, drizzle them with some good quality olive oil, add a bit of dill and a sprinkle of lemon zest. Stir and you are done.
This is a scrumptious snack that’s loaded with protein and healthy fats. Better yet, it tastes amazing. It’s the perfect appetizer for your next dinner party. Share it with your friends and family. They are going to love these stuffed olives.

Hummus Stuffed Olives
Ingredients
- Large olives pitted
- Hummus
- A good drizzle of olive oil
- Dill
- Lemon zest
Instructions
- You can use a piping bag, but I don’t have one so here’s how you can do it with a Ziploc bag.
- Place a small Ziploc bag inside a glass and fold the top over the edges. Spoon a few tablespoons of hummus into the bag. Take the bag out of the glass and push the hummus to the corner of the bag. Cut the corner, make sure it’s a tiny whole, small enough to fit inside the olives. Or you are going to end up with hummus everywhere but inside the olives.
- Remove the air from the bag and close the top.
- Carefully pipe the hummus into your favorite olives.
- Once they are filled, drizzle them with good quality olive oil, add a bit of fresh dill and a sprinkle of lemon zest.
- Stir and enjoy this easy appetizer!
