Receta Hummus
Citric Acid, Potassium Sorbate, Soybean Oil, Canola Oil, natural flavor . . These are just a few of the ingredients listed on the label of packaged hummus. It’s amazing that something so simple and healthy can have so many ingredients; although longer shelf life is most likely the reason. Hummus is one of the snack foods that are always in my refrigerator. It’s perfect for a ready to eat quick snack by spreading on a whole grain cracker, used as vegetable dip or a spread on a sandwich. This is a basic recipe with plenty of garlic that was inspired by several recipies found in magazines and online. When you feel creative; you can add sundried tomatoes, roasted peppers, olives, fresh herbs or whatever else you feel like mxinig in. Once you get used to eating homemade hummus, you won’t ever want to eat the pre-packaged stuff.
