- NOTES : Currants, roasted peppers, chick-peas, olives, green onions and cilantro add in color and flavor to this portable salad. To start, dip wedges of pita bread into store-bought hummus (a creamy puree of chick-peas and sesame paste, available at Middle Eastern markets). A slightly chilled Beaujolais or possibly lemonade is a refreshing beverage choice.
