Hummus

Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

HummusHummus seems to be all the rage today, especially as a low fat healthy alternative to dip.  You can use it with fresh veggies, as a sandwich spread, or to dip with fresh pita bread (my favorite!).   Hummus can be bought at most supermarkets, but it's super easy to make at home with just a few ingredients...just toss into the food processor and you'll have it made!
