One of my contributions to last week’s Super Bowl party was a giant batch of hummus and pita chips. It was my goal to offer a healthier alternative to the other dishes available. I knew I’d eat the junky stuff, but maybe less of it. Read more . Hummus is one of those things I love, but I’d never made before, and I’m told you need a really good recipe. I wound up looking at several and adjusting varying levels of ingredients to create my own. The end result was a mild, yet flavorful hummus that’s AWESOME on pita chips and will feed an army. If you’re just going to be making it for yourself or a few folks, I would half or third the recipe, as my friends who know more about hummus than I tell me it can’t be frozen.
