Voilà! A list of all of our hummazing creations from our Month of Hummus for Vegan MoFo 2013.

Can you believe it? It’s our final post of hummus month for Vegan MoFo 2013 — and we still have so many ideas! Pizza hummus, gluten-free hummus bread bowls, pull-apart hummus bread, hummus without legumes / paleo hummus, maple garlic hummus, chocolate hummus, a rainbow of hümmi, and everything in between. I have had such […]

Ashley, my hummus-co-blogger, is back to share the sweet hummus we came up with this weekend — it’s a great pairing to the Roasted Butternut Hummus because it uses the other half-can of chickpeas and the other bit of butternut squash, as well as the Masala Chai Spice Blend we posted yesterday.  We’re calling it […]

Ohhhh Chai spices — I love them so much!  They are so warming and comforting and make you feel like everything is right with the world.  I love Chai tea, and make my own masala chai (mixed spice tea) by blending tea and this spice mix.  The nice thing is you can customize the blend […]
