These were good, but not what I was expecting of an America's Test Kitchen recipe. I made these with Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus and used spinach instead of arugula. Yes I would make them again someday, but not as a regular thing.

I love this! I can have my hummus without any of that pesky dipping... My little store was out of pita, so I made it on a piece of naan. For the hummus, I made Almond Hummus. Didn't really measure how much I put on, just slathered it! I really like the arugula and for a piece, I also added some grape tomatoes. Made for ZWT #6!

A great taste! And so nice on this summer evening after a long - working day on the farm. I followed this exactly, putting the onion right smack on top and letting it roast right in the oven. This was lovely, I made my own pitas, along with the feta, olives, and arugula, you can't go wrong on this one. Just be sure to close the barn door :) Made for my friend on ZWT6 June 2010 Zee Zany Zesty Cookzzz
