Hummus with Green Peas

Sharon Palmer

Homemade hummus recipes are just so good! You can start with a basic hummus made with chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil, then add in extra ingredients to maximize the flavors. Green peas are added to this classic hummus recipe, which offers an earthy taste, pretty green color, and powerful nutrition profile. You will always find a container of hummus (like this one featuring green peas) in my fridge.
