Garlic Parsley Hummus

Hummus is one of my favorite spreads and dips.  It is incredibly healthy, delicious, and super easy to make.  I have been thinking about coming up with a new hummus recipe recently, and wanted to incorporate parsley.  I love the flavors of garlic, parsley, and lemon, and they remind me of my childhood and Greek food in general.  During lent, it is nice to have options which are satisfying.  Eastern Orthodox and Greek Orthodox Easter is not until the beginning of May, so we are in the middle of lent.  The parsley, garlic, and lemon each have a starring role and deliver a nice punch.  This hummus offers layers of strong flavors, and each bite is better than the next.  I will warn you though, you may need a breath mint afterwards 😉  It pairs extremely well with a good quality corn tortilla chip, especially blue ones.  It is also nice on pita bread with a salad.  This hummus is extremely healthy and really delivers on flavor.  If you enjoy the flavors of garlic, lemon, and parsley, this is your hummus.

I am super excited to bring this to Fiesta Friday #114!  The co-host this week is  Jhuls @ The Not So Creative Cook .

    Miam, miam! We love hummus. I’ve never tried to make it. I don’t eat too much of it because it’s so high calorie for just a couple of tablespoons. 🙁 I could eat that whole bowl in one sitting if it weren’t for that! 🙂

      We do too! It is super easy to make. I am with you on the calories, and it is so hard to resist! At least they are healthy calories, right ? 😉 I will sometimes reduce the oil and just add more water. It doesn’t compromise the taste that much, and will help reduce the calories and fat. You just need to stir it more after it sits.

    This sounds great! I’ve always used tahini and can’t wait to try the “Greek” way!

    This looks great! I’ve never heard of the “Greek way” without tahini, that’s interesting. I should make hummus soon, your other recipes look delicious too!

    Hummus is a favorite of mine also Antonia! Funny enough, my dad had made some and brought it with him when he visited last weekend. It is amazing and 100 times better than what you get in the store. I love your tip of using water instead of oil. I’m all about little shortcuts to save calories!

      I totally agree Heather, homemade is so much better. It sounds like you all had such a yummy weekend, with those delicious cookies and homemade hummus 😛 It really is good, even with less oil and more water. Have a wonderful rest of your weekend 😀

    The combination of garlic and lemon is really something extraordinary! I love garlicky and lemon-y hummus. I love the addition of parsley, too. I might eat this from a spoon like an ice cream! Looks so good! 😀 Thank you for sharing at this week’s FF. It’s nice to have you around. x
