I always make my hummus with a blender. I tend to overdo it with the garlic though, which turns some people off. The way I see it, more for me!! Thanks for the post!

Thanks everyone for the comments!!! They gave me a lot of great ideas! I personally enjoy adding a handful of garlic cloves to my hummus & also some hot chili oil to spice things up

Hi Jul, I just found your site searching for homemade hummus recipes. I only discovered hummus a few years ago at a neat little local store/diner. They made their own and served on a wrap with loads of your choice of veggies. I loved it, but the commercial brands just don’t measure up. I did find one brand that met my taste and requirements, it was a Roasted Red Pepper variety; but haven’t seen it in the store since, and now I can’t remember the brand. It had a great taste, was lower in fat, higher in fiber, and had less sodium than most…..in addition to fat and fiber, I try to pay close attention to sodium. I am on a mission to make my own Hummus from ingredients I prefer. Thanks for sharing your recipe and ideas!

I have loved hummus ever since I was introduced to it in high school. Such a treat! I often mix beans–half chickpeas, half black beans, seasoned with cumin. My “hummus mentor” also uses black-eyed peas. So good topped with fresh cucumbers from the garden!

Hummus is a beautiful thing. So many directions you can run with it, and I regularly run. On hot days I’ll make a cooler hummus by adding ingredients like carrots and cucumber. On cooler days I often spice it up with hot sauce or chilies, and plenty of pepper. Sun dried tomatoes that have been bottled in oil are a wonderful addition as well. Great job spreading the word of hummus.

Mmmm, I’m hungry just reading this. I’ve never tried making hummus before, but now I’m tempted.

Haha… probably a “great minds think alike” thing, I suppose. Cannelini spreads are one of my favorite ways to make use of bread when I have an otherwise light meal.
