I just made a batch of this hummus and it was delicious. The next time I will cut down on the sugar but even my husband who despises hummus was super impressed with this one.
http://www.iwashyoudry.com/caramelized-onion-hummus-recipe/
Ingredients
1 tbsp olive oil
1 medium sweet (or white) onion, diced
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp balsamic vinegar
1 (15oz) can Garbonzo Beans (Chick Peas), drained and rinsed
1 tbsp Tahini Paste (usually found in the international isle, or near the peanut butters)
1 clove garlic, pressed
3 tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp sea salt
1/3 cup olive oil, plus more if needed
Instructions
1. Start by caramelizing your onions. Add 1 tbsp of olive oil to a sauté pan over medium heat.
Toss in your diced onions and let them cook, stirring often, until they become soft and turn a
light golden brown (about 5 minutes). Add the brown sugar and balsamic vinegar and stir to
combine, letting the onions become coated with the mixture. Cook for an addition 1 to 2
minutes then remove from heat and let cool completely.
2. To prepare the hummus combine the garbonzo beans, tahini, garlic, lemon juice and sea salt
in your food processor. Turn it on and slowly stream in the olive oil through the top chute until
the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add more olive oil if desired. Add 1 to 2 tbsp of the cooled
caramelized onions to the hummus and pulse just a few times to incorporate. Place the
hummus in a serving dish and top with the remaining caramelized onions. Enjoy with pita
chips or fresh cut veggies!

I just found this one and I think I will try it. The combo of the spices and then adding hummus to this sounds like it would be tasty. Also just found this site and lots of recipe ideas!

I'm a poor vegetarian (monetarily) and have no patience for lengthy recipes. I live on rice, cheese (I'm ovo-lacto), bissara, protein pancakes, fruit, carrots, and chia pudding. No lie. :P My bissara recipe is similar to hummus but less work:
1 can garbanzo or fava beans, rinsed and dried
2 tsp/10g raw garlic (dehydrated works best and is cheap bought in bulk)
1 tsp/5g thyme
1 tsp/55 Kirkland non-salt spice.
1 tblsp. olive oil
Use the spices you like; I spice it as I like it Add the beans and a cup of water to a pot. Add the spices, put it all on medium heat and simmer until most of the water's boiled off. Remove from heat, mash the beans (I use a potato masher), add oil on top. I like mixing the oil in but that's a personal preference. I dip carrots in it and then am very, very full for many hours.0 -

Nuts, too, though those are better for fat. Eggs, if you eat them. Ditto cheese and yogurt if you eat those. Chia seeds have some. I don't do a lot of protein-fortified foods but I like protein pancakes.1
