This 5 Minute Lemon Garlic Hummus is creamy, perfectly textured and full of flavor. Perfect to pair with fresh cut veggies, crackers or on a sandwich.
Hummus is a staple in my fridge and in my diet. It’s such an easy and versatile dip and goes with just about anything. I love having it as an afternoon snack with raw veggies or pita bread. Tortilla chips, crackers & pretzels also pair perfectly for an easy afternoon snack. It also makes the perfect addition to any sandwich or wrap.
Lately, I’ve been making my own at home and it’s so easy I wanted to share with you guys. I made this recipe super simple but it’s so easy to customize with many different flavors, check out my Cumin Turmeric Spiced Hummus!
