I find myself spreading hummus on everything, it's my universal condiment. I also like to use it as a dip for my raw veggies when I need a quick and filling snack. Store bought hummus is usually vegan but too high in fat for me to consider buying it. Tahini (a paste made from sesame seeds) and olive oil are commonly used to make hummus but I find if I omit them, while adding in delicious spices, the hummus is just as tasty but much healthier. Here is my basic recipe. Try adding in jalapeno, roasted red pepper, olives or any other ingredients for a fun, new variation to the classic version.
