8 Delicious Appetizers Made with Hummus

In a recent blog, I wrote about my love affair hummus, the creamy dip made from chickpeas. Through this lifetime obession with hummus, I have developed several different appetizers that contain hummus. These appetizers can be made with many types of hummus, not just hummus with tahini.

I think presentation is almost equal to taste when it comes to appetizers. Appetizers are supposed to open your appetize and prepare you for the main course. These hummus appetizers will indeed open your appetite, but not make you too full.
