Snazzy Hummus Topper

January 23, 2023

Here’s an easy way to instantly dress up any store bought or homemade hummus. It’s nutritious and the flavour will knock your socks off. Even my 15 year old son who doesn’t usually reach for store-bought hummus, comes home from school asking for it.

Time to Prepare: 5 minutes Servings: 2-6

Ingredients

  • 1 Container Store bought hummus - I prefer plain hummus for this recipe but any type will do.

  • 1 ripe tomato or a large handful of cherry tomatos - chopped

  • 2 Tbs chopped fresh basil or fresh cilantro

  • 1 Tbs thinly sliced red onion (optional but really kicks up the flavour)

  • Course Salt (if you have it) and fresh pepper to taste

  • Generous Drizzle of Olive Oil

  • Something to dip with: carrots, peppers, crackers, pita bread, pita chips, tortilla chips…

Instructions:

Arrange chopped tomatos on top of hummus. Sprinkle with red onions and fresh herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Add a generous drizzle of olive oil on top. Serve Immediately with your favourite raw veggies or crackers or pita bread. Enjoy!

September 10, 2018
