In my never-ending quest to add greens to as many meals as possible, I decided to add fresh greens to one of my favorite snacks – hummus! I actually can’t believe that I haven’t shared a hummus recipe on this site since I eat it almost daily and love to make it at home. Lemon spinach hummus is easy to make and is a great way to sneak more greens into your diet. I love to eat it with homemade baked seasoned pita chips or piled high on a sandwich with other fresh ingredients.
