Classic Hummus With Toasted Pine Nuts
Hummus is a popular Middle Eastern snack made from mashed chickpeas, blended with a bit of olive oil, tahini, lemon/lime juice, and seasoning to your liking. Nowadays you can find it in most grocery stores, but we find the homemade version to be much better. If you’ve never tried it, we highly recommend that you do, being one of our all-time favorite snacks.
