Today is International Hummus Day! To say that hummus has been my savior on many lazy nights would certainly not be an exaggeration. After all, hummus goes with just about everything. All you need to do is toss a couple of ingredients together and top with hummus for it to be considered a meal!
While it’s easy to buy store-bought hummus and glob it on whatever your heart desires, we think making your own batch at home is so much better. Don’t you agree? After all, it’s always best to know exactly what you’re putting in your body!
