hummus

Did not like this recipe at all. I am a big fan of hummus, but this recipe seemed to mushy and quite bland. Threw almost all of it away.

Excellent, authentic taste

This recipe is amazing! The only change I would make is to either lessen or omit the sesame seeds. This is so easy, though, and tastes fantastic!
