This always tastes better after a rest in the fridge- just remember to bring it back to room temp. before serving.

(I reserved the juice from my can of beans to thin out my hummus as needed)

I labled this under lunch but really this is a great appetizer, snack, dinner, etc. etc. The possiblities are endless!!!

    I used Northern Beans (no chick peas in the pantry :) and red peppers from a jar. It is YUMMY even with the substitutions. Will follow the exact recipe next time & there will be a next time! - 10/4/11

    I love hummus and this is a tasy recipe. I did substitute onion powder for the onion salt. - 3/17/07
