Smoked Hummus
Hummus is never out of fashion. The versatile, plant-based Middle Eastern dip that began as a trend is now a healthy menu staple to serve with vegetables and bread, or as a dip. To create a smoother, creamier mouthfeel and texture, add Hellmann’s Vegan Mayonnaise and kick up the flavor and color with some smoked paprika.
