Very Good 4.8/5

I threw this together tonight with what I had in my house. You can reduce the sodium by draining and rinsing the beans (not accounted for here), but if you do that, you'll want to add about 1/4 cup of low-sodium vegetable or chicken stock to give it some moisture while it cooks. Play around and add more vegetables/seasonings, this is just what I had at the time.

I love this recipe because it reminds me of fall. It is so good as a side dish or even by itself. The combination of sugar, nuts, and fruit caramelizes and the squash becomes tender and absorbs all the flavors of the dish. This is easy to make, so try it!

Subbing half of the garbanzos for lower-fat black or small white beans and the olive oil and tahini for a small amount of sesame oil, plus a veggie, makes this version of hummus tasty and healthier than other versions.
