You can thank my husband, picky-eater-Pat, for this Spicy Jalapeño Cilantro Hummus recipe…
It’s hard to get him to eat veggies. My one-year-old gobbles them up, but my 30+ year-old husband won’t touch them unless I really push it. But over the years, I’ve found one way to get more veg into his mouth:
Spicy hummus.
If I put a glob of spicy hummus on his plate next to some chopped carrots or cucumbers, he will eat them all! However, as I’ve searched for the best store-bought spicy hummus, I’ve been disappointed to learn that pretty much all store-bought hummus contain seed or vegetable oils (sunflower, canola, etc.) that I do my best to avoid in our home. So one day I came to the conclusion that it was time I learn to make my own hummus.
And WOW I’m glad I did.
