Easy Hummus Recipe You’ve Ever Made!
Hi HealthStyles Community Members!
Tori and I just created this basic blog to make it easier to send out short messages on healthy living and lifestyles!
Today, we are sharing a basic hummus recipe that I made the other day! My first attempt left it tasting a bit too lemony and garlicy! So, I pulled back on both as you will see below. Tori tried my second batch of hummus and loved it!!
If you make this hummus, Tori and I would love to know how you liked it! Monica has already chimed in saying that Tahini is not necessarily needed to make hummus. Although, I just like following the recipe first and then making variations after I’ve tasted the first batch. :-).
Enjoy and we hope we can continue to keep you chock full of healthy tips!!
Best, Tori and Danyetta
Here’s the recipe:
