My husband considers himself a hummus expert and this is his recipe for smooth and delicious hummus. We all love hummus and making it yourself is much healthier and tastes better then anything that you can buy at the market. It pairs well with fresh vegetables, pita bread or pita crackers.
This recipe is so simple and only takes about 5 minutes to prepare.
