Creamy Ranch Hummus
Here’s the thing about hummus – you can add pretty much anything to its base to get a variety of different flavors and nutrients. One of our favorites, this creamy ranch hummus, is such an easy snack or side dish. My go-to dippers are carrots, bell peppers, celery, and pretzels, but you can make this snack your own with your favorite “dip vehicle.”
Not only delicious, but what can you expect from a nutritional standpoint with this creamy ranch hummus? I’m not a vegetarian but not a huge meat eater either, so hummus and it’s plant-based protein is a great option for a snack that satisfies. Additionally, hummus gives you fiber, anti-inflammatory properties, heart-healthy ingredients, and a low-glycemic index food.
This creamy ranch hummus recipe is also extremely easy to modify! Dairy-free? Use dairy-free yogurt or cashew cream as a swap. Looking for an extra kick? Add your favorite pepper or spice to the rest of the ingredient list and take it up a notch.
