Hummus

 

Hummus has always been an all time favorite

healthy snack for me. I love to eat it with crackers, tortilla chips or even with veggies like caualiflowers, carrots and broccoli (if you  want to go keto). I was inspired a long time ago to make my own hummus. I thought of preparing this in a different way. Why not try sautéed onions and garlic? So I tried it and it came out delicious.  Hummus with sautéed onions and garlic….. Yum!
