Happy Meatless Monday veggie loving friends! Sarah and I are glad to have you join us. Today I am all about the healthy Hummus snacks. I’ve loved traditional hummus for years but decided it was time to up my game a little with some new twists. Today I’m giving you 3 different recipes to Hummus Like You’ve Never Hummused Before! (Yup I just made up that word)
You may have noticed that I am also all about eggs and egg recipes lately. One of my favorite ways to eat hummus is to stuff it into hard boiled eggs. Of course it’s important to cook your eggs properly so they don’t fall apart. Here’s your guide to cooking the perfect hard boiled eggs.
Carrot Siracha Hummus
I wasn’t sure how this one was going to come out but-super yummy! I’ve used roasted baby carrots and a squirt of siracha to really create a satisfying, delicious snack. If you like spicy eggs, you will love this Carrot Siracha Hummus piped into hard boiled eggs. Of course, this hummus is fabulous with crudite or chips too. I loved the color!

Roasted Beet & Goat Cheese Hummus
I have always loved the taste of roasted beets paired with goat cheese so I figured, why not take that combo and create a tasty Roasted Beet hummus? I prepared this dip and topped it off with the goat cheese however, I think you could just as easily add the goat cheese into the hummus. I loved how this came out and it’s perfectly paired with the hard boiled eggs.
Avocado Hummus
If you like guacamole, this is the bomb! This Avocado hummus does not have Tahini and you won’t miss it at all. Loaded with healthy fat and vitamins from the avocado combined with the chick peas this is the perfect snack! I also think it would be amazing as a spread on a sandwich. I was worried it might turn brown but adding in the lime juice seems to take care of that.
Which one of these hummus twists looks good to you?
