4 ounces shaved parmesan cheese
Slice pickles lengthwise and thinly slice red bell pepper. Spread hummus on each of the olive bread slices. Top with pickles and peppers and cover with parmesan cheese. Serve open faced or as sandwiches.

I think that this is a great combination. It would be even better if I roasted the red pepper first and perhaps onions too before adding them to the sandwich.
Now this is something I would enjoy! I might substitute the pepper for a roasted red pepper though only because I like them. I love hummus and it is really pretty good for you. I like all these ingredients.
We would all love this.
I never would of thought of this food combo!
thank you
I like the flavors in this sandwich. Nothing I have ever put together but I think they would taste good.
This sounds so good and I am not sure if I have ever had olive bread that sounds so yummy. Thank you for sharing this recipe and have a nice rest of the weekend.
I eat hummus all of the time. I make it myself even. Yet, I have never once eaten it with a pickle, imagine! You are a genius. I am partial to those tiny French Cornichons particularly.
