Hummus by Frosted FlakerThis is a great snack for any time of year. I personally serve it with Kalamata olives and sometimes even diced cucumber and/or bell pepper.

Hummus & Greek Salad by Padma Priya ManikamI decided to go healthy one night and went Arabic and Greek!

Artichoke Bean Hummus by Farrell May PodgorsekCanned artichokes blended with garbanzo or white beans, tahini and citrus makes a delicious, lower calorie dip than the traditional hummus. the grapefruit juice gives the dip a slight tang, but you can use lemon juice if grapefruits are not available.
