See the recipe boards under dressings, sauces and dips. There are several recipes: zippy hummus, edamame hummus, healthy hummus and more. I buy Sabra hummus or Aldi's brand and don't have a problem with it. It would be cheaper to make my own though and you can freeze it in small containers so it goes well on trips. I will take some when I go to Iowa tomorrow. I love HLT sams on rye crisps. (that is hummus, lettuce and tomato) I tried the Mac on corn thins and had no trouble throwing away the bread so I don't have to go overboard on the popcorn this trip! I also make my eggless salad with mashed garbanzo beans, mustard and mayo and maybe a little rinsed sweet relish. I used to buy the no added sugar relish, but have been unable to find it in the stores. Hope this helps.

INGREDIENTS:
2 cups cooked, drained white beans, such as navy, Great Northern, or canellini
1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
1 clove garlic
1/2 tsp. Key Lime Juice (or regular lime juice would be ok)
1/4 cup olive oil
Dash of Salt
1/2 cup water

Place all of the ingredients in a food processor and blend until totally smooth. That's it....it's super-easy, delicious & nutritious. See how fun it is to include healthy beans in your diet?! Enjoy!

Thank you so much It is quite similar to what i think i remember LOL I used lemon juice and cumin I think.. But this sounds good. I am gonna try it. Yesterday my daughter came over and I made pho. Wasn't sure i would like it but it was very good. Have you ever tried it

[Zesti]

Yes, and even got my DH to try it too. He liked it and said he would eat it again..I warned him not to cook it long, and it was hard not to do so..but it came out good. We used the fetchinni size..I could have eaten the whole box !! I also like the brown rice pasta and getting DH to eat that instead...I don't really eat a lot of pasta, nor do I want too anymore...and now adays a little goes a long way..which is a good thing
