Easy Hummus Recipe You’ve Ever Made!

oday, we are sharing a basic hummus recipe that I made the other day!  My first attempt left it tasting a bit too lemony and garlicy!  So, I pulled back on both as you will see below. T

If you make this hummus, I would love to know how you liked it!  Tahini is not necessarily needed to make hummus.  Although, I just like following the recipe first and then making variations after I’ve tasted the first batch. :-).

Enjoy!!

Best, Here’s the recipe:
