Looking to upgrade your traditional hummus recipe? I’ve got a zesty version for you. It’s got a great zip and robust flavors that’ll send your taste buds into overdrive.
Spring is around the corner (OK, OK almost) and this is a nice, but deeply flavorful, transition from hearty soups and stews to a lighter fare. As a knock-off to the traditional version, we applaud our lemon tarragon hummus recipe. I think this is the way to go!
As usual, you’ll need…
A food processor. 🙂
