Fresh Hummus With Pine Nuts Recipe
This dip is a more sophisticated version of my plain hummus. it is incredibly healthy and totally filling. Perfect for a quick snack or a mid-day energy booster. The protein in this dip is crazy.

Great post. Love this recipe.


Sounds inviting!:)



Hi, do you have any recipes for people like me with Interstitial Cystitis that are yummy? I'm getting desperate...the foods I have to eat are so bland and when I eat normal foods I have flare ups. Please help me, I would be sooooo GRATEFUL! Also can I make the hummus with just pine nuts, or cashews?
