I haven't
made hummus in ages, but these three flavours sound so good!
The added sweet potato
makes the hummus so delicious, and a great recipe for the picky eaters who should be eating more vegetables.
I don't strictly measure my spices
when making hummus and in my mind, there is a wonderful flavor and aroma that comes from the cumin.
If you're not
making hummus from scratch, look for a brand that uses olive oil instead of soybean or canola oil.
I do
n't make hummus as often as I'd like, since I like to eat it only with bread and I consider bread to be a «sometimes food».
It's really easy to
make hummus at home, it's less expensive and taste so much better.
I always buy canned chickpeas with the intention
of making hummus and end up roasting them instead.
I
love making hummus because it's one of those recipes that is protein - packed (thanks to the mighty chickpea) and it's so adaptable.
I
often make hummus or a spread, such as a white bean puree, to serve guests while they are having a chilled glass of wine.
I know it's easy to just buy
ready made hummus from the shops and there are many good quality ones out there, but most of them are full of preservatives.
I love
making hummus now, and it is so good for runners as recovery fuel with all its nutrients.
Ready
made hummus available today in most supermarkets has preservatives, and too much salt and oil for my palate.
If we pack more meal style, I'll
make a hummus wrap (or sandwich) and a really yummy sunflower spread sandwich.
