This is the first of my “Fresh 20” (www.thefresh20.com) inspired recipes and the second time in my life I’ve eaten hummus, except this time I actually liked it. I think the other hummus “incident” occurred when I was with a Heidi few years ago and she suggested I choke it down with some carrots. Just kidding, Heidi. As with all of the Fresh 20 inspired recipes, they are SIMPLE and quick. And, when I’m hungry and my hormones are wacked out of balance. . .I need food quick.
PS – Note I added a SMALL glop of fat-free sour cream on top of my delicious mound.
