Basic Hummus

We’ve given our simple hummus a bit of an update here to make it even more delicious for you. i make this every week, it’s a great thing to have in the fridge as it’s so versatile. i love dipping crunchy vegetables into it, spreading it onto open faced rye sandwiches, dolloping it on top of lunch bowls or using it as a side with a lunch time salad. if you make a big batch, store it in an airtight container in the fridge for about five days.
