Instructions
Toast the Pita
Toss the torn pita pieces with one tablespoon of olive oil and a pinch of salt. Spread on a baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 8 minutes until golden and crispy.
Prepare the Vegetables
Dice the cucumbers and tomatoes into roughly equal bite-sized pieces and place them in a large salad bowl.
Make the Dressing
Whisk together the remaining olive oil, fresh lemon juice, sumac, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl until well combined.
Assemble and Serve
Add the toasted pita chips to the vegetables, drizzle the dressing over everything, and toss gently. Serve immediately so the pita retains some crunch.
