Hummus is a great healthy go-to to have on hand for a protein-filled snack, as an easy appetizer or as part of a nutritious lunch – and there are so many variations on a theme. This spin incorporates classic ingredients like chickpeas and tahini, but adds the sugary nuttiness of sweet potato. Paprika, cumin, cayenne and garlic lend heat and harmony for a warming, savory vibe.
