Classic Hummus

Hummus and Veggies

This is a classic recipe and one of my personal favorites. It’s quick and easy to make and goes with all kinds of stuff. My kids enjoy it with raw carrots, tomatoes, sliced cucumber, broccoli, jicama, snap peas, you name it. It’s also great with sprouted grain bread.
