Hummus. It's a funny word and and has an even stranger consistency. This middle eastern treat has been around for centuries and is made of primarily chickpeas. Other ingredients such as olive oil, garlic, and lemon are added to give it that extra kick. There are many different variations of hummus, some of which are roasted red pepper, jalapeño, spinach and artichoke, roasted garlic, etc. If your mouth isn't watering right about now, something must be wrong. As if this delicious dip isn't already versatile enough, here are so many exciting ways to eat it!
Put it on a wrap
Hummus goes with almost anything. It's true. Spread it on your wrap with some lettuce, chicken, avocados, or anything else you might want. The hummus will add flavor and tie together all of the different taste sensations.
Spread it on your eggs
This might seem strange, but give it a chance! Eggs can be bland sometimes, and ketchup definitely gets old after a while. Use a little or maybe a lot, either way your taste buds will thank you for it.
Dip it low with the veggies
It's possible that every single vegetable tastes incredible with hummus. Cucumbers, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, and avocados all taste divine with hummus. Celery, string beans, peppers, asparagus, and onions are heavenly with it. This option is definitely healthier and may even help you eat the veggies you normally wouldn't want to eat!
Dip it lower with the grains
This is everyone's guilty pleasure when it comes to hummus. Pretzels, pita, wheat thins, saltines, and crackers all are hummus' soul mates. This is perfect for a party or get together because it's low maintenance, easy to set up, and delicious. You can also toast some bread and dip it in the hummus for a combo that will make you keep eating miles after you passed being full.
Put it somewhere, spread it, or dip it. Eat the roasted red pepper or the spinach and artichoke. Do whatever you want with it! That's the beauty of hummus, the options and taste sensations are limitless.
