This super easy hummus recipe is deliciously creamy and makes the perfect snack! You can can enjoy this hummus with veggies, crackers, pita chips, on a sandwich or even by the spoonful. The options with super easy hummus are endless!
I love having homemade hummus on hand, for the work week especially. I truly need to have prepped snacks like this ready to go or I’ll continue to eat spoonful’s of almond butter in a pinch! š This is the most flavorful hummus I’ve ever made. It’s nutty and smoky from the tahini and cumin, yet bright and zesty from the lemon. It also comes together super quickly in your food processor. I have this food processor and love it!
Hummus is one of those snacks I can never really get sick of either. Dip, spread, spoon onto anything and everything. My favorite vehicles to carry hummus are carrots, Simple Mills crackers, celery, and pita chips! I even love dipping a Mediterranean style chicken in there. Outside of the food combinations, there are SO many flavor variations you can make with hummus. I’m setting a goal for myself to experiment with more flavors. The first on my “try” list are roasted red pepper, basil, and sun dried tomato! Let me know which one you’d like to see first.
