Avocado Hummus (Tahini Free)
My best friend, Jodi, LOVES hummus! Our group of girlfriends tease her about it all the time. It was actually in her kitchen that I came up with this recipe. It’s been about a year, but I vividly remember both of us taking our first bite and thinking it was one of the best things we’ve ever eaten.
While researching ideas for segments for WTHR, I learned that International Hummus Day is in May. I thought sharing this recipe would be perfect because it celebrates such a fun food holiday as well as gives a great recipe to bring to your Race Day tailgates and Memorial Day cookouts. This is one of those things you can make and let it sit out for a bit without worrying about it going bad.
