I’m so glad hummus is a “thing” now, appetizers and parties are so much better than hummus’ predecessor – ranch dip. I love some Hidden Valley and then, but it does get old after awhile. With endless flavors of hummus, there’s always something new to enjoy with veggies and crackers. So naturally, it’s only fitting to celebrate this fine spread and alas Friday is National Hummus Day. So whether your enjoy the Publix brand or whipping up a batch on your own, here’s to enjoying some glorious smashed up chickpeas.
