    Definitely a nice "twist" on traditional hummus. used a sun-dried tomato pesto and I added additional lemon juice and a touch of cayenne. Served this today with some sea-salt pita chips. Made for the "Four Your Consideration" tag game.

    Hummus W/A Tomato Twissis Twist (My Invention) – Zwt-8 (India), Submitted for play in ZWT-8, the starting-point of this recipe was a basic hummus recipe I found in a sml cookbook I got at Heilsustofnun NLFI (An Icelandic health spa) I chg’d it up a bit to suit our taste preferences & then added my Twissis Twist It’s an easy quick-fix that has proven itself & is freq requested by our family & friends The end-product is thick & I suggest reserving the liquid drained from the canned chickpeas to thin it as desired for your intended use This recipe is also easily halved, but I’ve never done that as it’s usually made for occasions & disappears quickly Yield was estimated – I just never bothered to ck that because I was happy 10 min was allowed for ingredient assembly & 5 min for prep *Enjoy!*, Definitely a nice twist on traditional hummus used a sun-dried tomato pesto and I added additional lemon juice and a touch of cayenne Served this today with some sea-salt pita chips Made for the Four Your Consideration tag game , Absolutely amazing! I checked the label on my pesto and realized it contained an allergen, so I left it out and used a little olive pate instead So easy and delicious! For ZWT8
