| Thanks to Mezzetta for sponsoring today’s recipe. |
During the holidays the parties are endless! It is pretty exciting but also can add a bit of stress to these months. When asked to bring a snack to holiday parties, I tend to always go the healthier/ not dessert way. Most parties are overloaded with sweet treats (and I make sure to take part in enjoying those things!) but people also love a little something on the salty/ fresh side! Hummus is surprising easy to make and if you just add your favorite dipping veggies, Mezzetta olives, and pita chips – you are set to go with a dish that delights!
WHAT YOU NEED:
1 can of garbanzo beans/ chickpeas
2 tbs of fresh garlic
2 tbs lemon juice
2 tbs olive oil
1 tsp of kosher salt
HOW TO:
1. Combine and blend in a food processor. Make sure not to over blend. I use my Ninja blender when I make my hummus at home.
2. Serve and enjoy!
PAIR WITH:
– Cherry Tomatoes
– Cellery
– Carrots
– Black Olives
– Stuffed Olives
– Feta
– Banana Peppers
– Pita Chips
I adore hummus and the idea of bringing a homemade version makes me feel so grown up, I love it!
I'm usually the one on baked goods! Sometimes, if I'm feeling too busy with other work, I just bring the utensils. I know, I'm horrible! Anyways, pita and hummus is delicious! So fresh and flavorful and healthy… Which naturally means that I can eat an unlimited amount, right? 😛 -Audrey | Brunch at Audrey's
I make the best cupcakes, that what my friends say 😀 at least it's something, right? thank you for your comment, I adore your blog!
I love hummus! It's such a great party dish too!
Hummus is soooo good! <3
I agree!
Thanks! It is a fun one. It can be a cake plate and a punch bowl too!
YUM! keep up the good work.
Thanks 🙂 !!
No worries! We always need utensils! and I think the second part is completely true!
Yes! And it is the easiest thing to whip up! I love making it for people who are already over and hungry for a snack!
oh this looks so easy and we loooooove hummus!
It is easy! And you can easily add different spices for taste!
I love that you don't use tahini (I never do because of its limited shelf life). This sounds wonderful. When I can bring a delicious, healthy food to parties and gatherings.
Also, we have a Ninja, too, and love it.
It is amazing!
and yes! We are so twins!
