Description
I love hummus, and I have plenty of different varieties. From different spice combinations to various roasted vegetables, hummus is my go to spread, dip, and dressing. But today, after finding some tahini on sale, I decided I should make some classic hummus. This is a plain hummus flavor that can serve as a base for any other ideas, or stand on its own for your toast, veggie sticks, or salads. Each serving is about 2 tbsp, or 30 g
