Dust off that food processor or blender in the back of your cabinet and get ready to whip up this quick and delicious snack! Hummus may seem intimidating, but in fact, it is super easy to prepare, and your recipe can be adapted to whatever you have available in your pantry. Don't have Tahini? Use olive oil instead. Don't have chickpeas? Use any 'ol canned bean! In this recipe, we use Tandoori Masala, a spice blend that is packed with bright, tangy, and spicy flavors, taking this regular boring bean dip to new heights. Once you start making this hummus at home, it will be hard to go back to those store-bought brands.
