   Build the plate

   Spoon the 1/2 cup of hummus into a bowl and use the back of a spoon to create a deep swirl in the center. Drizzle generously with olive oil and dust with 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Arrange the halved cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and olives around the hummus. Tear the warm pita into wedges and serve alongside for dipping.
