In our house, it’s hummus because it checks off so many boxes:

My favourite hummus recipe!!
I made this with almond butter instead of tahini because of a sesame allergy – I don’t know how the flavour compares to the actual version, but mine turned out delicious!
Hummus sounds wonderful – and – what are those wonderful, delicious looking crackers??
The crackers are called Bean Crisps! They’re super tasty! We love them 🙂
Just tried this for the first time. I was hesitant at first… the thought of dates in hummus . But it was a subtle sweetness. And a subtle curry. Daaaang. Delicious
Daaang Delicious. I like your descriptions 🙂
I make this recipe without the datebook paste because I’d have to buy something not usually on my list and it’s still amazing with the missing ingredient
Good to know that it’s just as tasty without the date paste!
