I know, I know.
Hummus has already peaked in popularity, and now we are making it out of edamame, beets, lentils, and an unfathomable number of ingredients other than garbanzo beans.
So, nothing new here.
But I get so many requests for this recipe that feel indebted to share it, if for no other reason than to make sure I remember it.
In a way hummus is my secret weapon. Kevin thought it was yuppie food until he tried mine. Even now hummus wraps are his go-to healthy food when we have been indulging too much and need to lighten up.
I also shared it at work one time, cautiously, because my coworkers don’t have the greatest interest in health foods. This is now the number one requested food in our office.
It’s like the food that makes people turn healthy.
Anyway, if you are looking for a bare-bones hummus that will please just about everyone, this is your recipe.
Enjoy.
