Kalamata Rosemary Hummus

A creamy and nutritionally packed spread that is bursting with flavor. Enjoy in wraps and sandwiches, or as a dip for crackers, pita, or raw veggies. So many variations are possible by changing up the beans, and adding different fresh herbs, spice blends, and other ingredients.
