Aaaaand my obsession with messing with hummus continues…
We had visitors from Germany stop by recently. I whipped this up in the food processor in the morning before work so we would have a nice appetizer to nosh on at our place before going out to dinner.
I wasn’t too sure about adding these flavors to the hummus but the resulting flavors were bright and fresh. Perfect for spring. It was a hit with both the guests and the hubby.
I am submitting this recipe to One Ingredient Cooking Challenge hosted by Laura over at How to Cook Good Food. May’s theme is Lemons.

- 1 aprig fresh rosemary, chopped

Ooh sounds good. I often add limes to my hummus, but have never though of rosemary.
Oh this is such a nice twist on a classic app. I think I can turn my husband into a hummus lover with this one. (He loves key limes).
Have nev made hummus, but I'm now very tempted xxx
What a beautiful sounding take on the traditional hummus! I have this for lunch most days and now I will be trying yours out for sure.
Many thanks for entering this into #oneingredient this month!

I haven't made homemade hummus for years! I used to make it all the time and loved it – we all do. Storebought now is fast, easy and good. But now I want to make my own, thanks to you. Looks perfect AND love the idea of lime…
My mouth is watering and I've still got to wait a few more hours until dinner! This sounds fantastic. I'm pretty obsessed with hummus, too, but I still haven't made any at home. We have a really fantastic Lebanese restaurant pretty close to our house and we always get the hummus (and deep-fried pita chips) when we go there. Lemon and lime would be absolutely perfect for warm weather, though.
No doubt your guests were impressed with this! Another hummus recipe I can send along to my sister and her husband (they love hummus!)
