Spicy Black Bean Hummus

From our skinny table to yours...

Holy yum!  You might be starting to realize by now that we LOVE veggies and hummus.  It's hands down are favorite go-to snack!  We love creating new variations, our latest creation being our Spicy Black Bean Hummus.  Don't get us wrong we are still completely hooked on our Sweet Pea & Mint Hummus, we just love to experiment in the kitchen ;)


We love to make a nice BIG batch of hummus every week so we have healthy go-to snacks ready when hunger strikes.  Making your own hummus ensures you are eating clean, whole ingredients and organic too should you choose!  Hummus is super easy to whip together.  We made this batch simply from organic black beans, olive oil, cilantro, cumin, jalapeno (for a little kick), garlic and freshly squeezed lime juice!  


We topped our hummus with some roasted organic corn for a little crunch and then went to town dipping.  Chop up your favorite veggies and enjoy!
