Giving my all time favorite snack a spin with this Artichoke and Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
Hummus is seriously one of my favorite things to make. It takes approximately 2.73 minutes... okay maybe 2.8 minutes if you take your time opening the can of garbanzo beans and perhaps few minutes longer if you take the time to peel the chickpeas which is worth every single second.
Typically I make hummus once a week and throw it together with some celery sticks, baby carrots or some homemade pita chips and call it a day! I've been known to jazz it up with any number of roasted veggies and herbs but this artichoke and roasted red pepper situation is SO good! And you probably have everything you need in your pantry right this very minute.
