Prepare the hummus by blending chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil until smooth.

Season the ground beef with cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the seasoned ground beef to the skillet and cook until browned and crispy, about 8-10 minutes.

While the beef cooks, chop cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.

In a bowl, layer a generous scoop of hummus as the base.

Top the hummus with the crispy beef, followed by the chopped vegetables.

Sprinkle chopped parsley over the top for freshness.

Drizzle with additional olive oil and lemon juice if desired.

Serve with warm pita bread on the side.
