Editors Review

There are probably a thousand different recipes for the original hummus. One can’t claim this one to be any more authentic than the next. What is great about it is that it is not made from canned garbanzo's. This hummus recipe works well and tastes good. And the clincher it is quick and easy to make! It is a delicious spread, dip or side in a meal. It is a packed with proteins, which makes it a fantastic post-workout snack as well.
