This is by far my favorite recipe for hummus! I’ve even served this to people who don’t care for hummus and they helped themselves to seconds and thirds. My friend once served sandwiches with hummus on it (instead of butter or mayonnaise, etc.) and it really gave it a nice flair. This is delicious with crackers or bread. And eating with vegetables makes a delicious and healthy snack!
