It didn't even make it to a serving bowl. We ate it straight from the buzzer! |
We went home from the vacation with loads of recipes, and treats, and the Hummus recipe became a favorite. A few days ago I came across a recipe highlighted on the Tasty Kitchen blog. It was a homemade hummus that incorporated fresh spinach in it and it looked so pretty. Since I just happened to have all the ingredients on hand (my pantry stock is getting ridiculous! I usually have just about every weird ingredient you could ever imagine.) I decided to make it.
It was the perfect pre meal snack before Sunday dinner. And the good thing is, it will last a while in the fridge. I love dipping Stacey's Just Naked Pita Chips. Emma likes tortillas chips. Veggies are great too. It's actually really healthy and a great alternative to creamy chip dips.
