This Hummus Recipe is an Italian twist on the classic Hummus Recipe! This Hummus Recipe tastes great with Fresh Italian Bread (mine was from my favorite Italian bakery – Aversa’s in Brigantine, NJ). I also had some fresh parsley and oregano that I used in this recipe, that came right from my sister Becky’s garden in Brigantine! This recipe makes a lot, so you can use this Hummus Recipe to make for a crowd! Or this can be great to include on a Meatless Monday to use throughout the week for snacks, sandwiches, wraps and lunches throughout the week! If you have a Vitamix – I would say definitely use it to make this recipe – it is absolutely perfect for making Hummus!
