How to make Black Bean Hummus:

I love serving mine with raw veggies. It also tastes great topped on tacos, taco salad, or eaten with tortilla chips.

What other items can I use to make Hummus?

Traditionally, hummus is made with chickpeas. The Arabic word Hummus literally translates to chickpeas. But the process of mashing/blending chickpeas, adding oil and spices can be used in a variety of different legumes and veggies.

You probably will still call it hummus, but technically it would not be hummus.

Some great foods to try would to turn into your own hummus could be lima beans, edamame, any bean, or even squash!

Try something new next time your are in the mood for hummus!

This Black Bean Hummus is all made in the blender with just a few simple ingredients. I love to serve mine topped with red pepper flakes and tortilla chips or raw veggies for dipping.
