I dunno, but I do love hummous! (basically made up of chickpeas) I wish I could make it taste like the store does/ restaurant does. It’s so perfectly creamy, mine comes out all lumpy and gritty and has too much tahini (sesame seed) flavor.
My fave is to put a little smearing on a holland toast (big round crouton like they use in french onion soup) and top with fresh salsa! It’s so good, and since it’s packed with protein; it’s suitable for a meal (I have two toasts like that) and I won’t get hungry before 4pm.
