Today’s guest post comes from Shelley and Gretchen at Two Healthy Kitchens. These two ladies are definitely women after my own heart. Their blog is loaded with tips on eating healthier and encouraging kids (and adults!) to eat vegetables in delicious and fun ways. Somehow, I’ve managed to never make hummus (I just inhale the store bought varieties like it’s my job), so good thing I have these two to pick up my slack and bring this delicious sounding cannellini bean hummus!
When Kelly invited us to share one of our Two Healthy Kitchens recipes, we were truly honored! We just love Kelly’s recipes – and her totally gorgeous photos! We were so flattered she chose us to guest post! But … we were also a little stymied. Hmmmm … which recipe would her readers (that’s you! 😀 ) love most?
We literally went back and forth, texting and e-mailing and chatting about different options. Oh! Maybe one of our powered-up Snack Bites – those always get BIG raves! But wait … maybe our Citrus Quinoa and Chickpea Salad? Insanely delicious! Hmmmmmm … or what about our Peanut Butter Silk Pie Dip??? Oh, yeah! Killer-good and just four ingredients!
But then we knew! It just had to be this hummus!
Creamy cannellini beans with rich, piquant, sun-dried tomatoes and fresh, summer basil. All balanced by a hint of tart lemon and just a splash of Sriracha.
This is the appetizer that’ll save the day when you’re faced with that paralyzing thought … “I’ve gotta be out the door in five minutes! Oh-no-what-am-I-gonna-take-to-the-party?!?” You can throw this together in a flash, but it’ll be the talk of the buffet table. It’s.that.good.
Even better? It’s just the recipe you wanna keep in mind for late-night noshing. Sooooo yummy that it’ll easily tackle any “I just need a little something …” craving. But so guilt-free, too! It’s loaded with delicious (nutritious!) goodies!
Just toss the ingredients in a mini food processor (no pre-chopping needed!), give it all a quick whirl, and serve it up with whatever dippers are close at hand! So easy!
Ahhhhhh …perfect! Any day, any time … in just moments!
We know you’ll love it just as much as our families (and our own readers!) do!

sriracha & basil, my 2 new obsessions finally meet!
Shelley and Gretchen have an awesome blog! This hummus looks like something I would scarf down in a heartbeat. Love the mix of white beans, sundried tomatoes and basil- yum!
Totally digging this Italian hummus recipe, I’d probably eat it with a spoon!
A good spicy take on hummus is just what I love to have in my fridge! Both for snacking and for toting to parties…if it makes it to the party after I get through with it.
Looks so good
Thank you so much for the fantastic opportunity to guest post on your awesome blog! You already know what huge fans we are of you – and we are so honored that you thought to share us with your readers!!
Shelley and I hope you have a phenomenal time away! Send us a postcard, Kelly!! 🙂 ~G
