Ho-Hum Hummus? Try this Spinach Twist

Thanks so much for joining us for our first video blog!  We are excited to bring you one of the quickest, easiest, and HEALTHIEST recipes for homemade spinach hummus.

One of the reasons that I LOVE this recipe is that I can literally make it in less than 5 minutes. I have made it a few minutes before running out the door for a girls night in and have also made it moments before we had friends over for dinner.

It’s also great for dipping veggies and using as a spread on sandwiches and wraps.  We will keep this post short and sweet so that you can enjoy the video below!
