    Since no one else mentioned it, I love the Good Neighbors hummus that I find at Whole Food, the roasted garlic kind. Yummy!!!!!

    I've seen it at Stop and Shop!! I have to try it. Love hummus. makes a great sandwich with just A slice of tomato and whole wheat bread!!!

    Sabra's also has a Spinach Artichoke hummus that totally rocks but the only place I ever see it, is at Costco! I <3 Hummus!

    I have to make it from scratch twice a week because my whole family is addicted. My husband and kids would finish the little jar from Trader Joe's in an afternoon. My son takes it to school in a Ziploc for dipping his celery so he goes through alot.

    My recipe:

    2 cloves garlic, minced
    1 (15 oz) can garbanzo beans, drained
    1/3 cup tahini paste (ground sesame seeds)
    1/3 cup lemon juice
    1/2 cup roasted red peppers (buy in jar or roast)
    1/4 teaspoon dried basil

    This is so great!! Just think of all the substitute additions that could be made for individual tastes!! THANKS!!

    Mix all in food processor until smooth. I swap the red peppers for tomato and basil to mix things up. Hopes this helps keep your addition flourishing!



    When you put the beans in do you drain the can or leave the liquid in please because mine was really dry.

    I put the beans in then add the liquid while blending to get the the right consistency. Sometimes I need it thick if I know I am using most of the batch for for wraps.

    The best I've tasted is at a Mediterranean restaurant near me, called Fadi's...next best was Whole Foods' "Out to Lunch" just regular hummus. SO tasty. I could spoon it out and eat it by itself!! I tried making my own and it wasn't that great... my favorite "flavor" would have to be roasted red pepper - I'm partial to the Sabra myself!

    After reading this earlier today, I totally went to the grocery store to get some. I'm having it now...Tribe sun dried tomato and basil, yummo! Oh, and I got some Kellogg's Special K whole grain crackers to eat with it, delish!
