Hummus is always a go-to in my house because it is so quick to make and a great source of protein. I just eat hummus constantly, and so does my baby! I can always make it for a quick lunch when I have nothing else in the house to give her. I will usually pair it with some veggies and cheese and crackers for a high protein meal.

I call it a Simple Hummus because it really is simple. The few ingredients that are used for the recipe already give it so much flavor that you don’t need to add anything else (unless you want to)!

For Littles

My 11-month-old daughter absolutely loves this hummus and devours it every single time I make it. I love to roast some veggies when I serve this to her and will try to show her how to dip the veggies into the hummus. I will roast carrots and zucchini, but you can roast whatever you have in your fridge. This is the perfect hummus recipe to start your baby on because the flavors in this hummus aren’t overwhelming, but they are enough to hit your baby’s taste buds!

When your baby or toddler is ready for more flavors, feel free to add a clove of garlic or garlic powder or even some tahini.

How To

Add all the ingredients to a food processor. Blend a couple times, add some more water if needed.

Pair with your favorite veggies and sides!
