If you’re tired of those expensive store bought varieties and thought that was the stuff! Well your in for a surprise.

Let’s be honest it costs anywhere from $4 to $6 dollars for a 350 grams of hummus in the stores.
But making it at home this way, will cost you under $1.00 for that same amount hummus.
CAN YOU FREEZE HUMMUS
Absolutely, I do it all the time. I will make a big batch and store some in the fridge for my family. Which lasts us up to a week in an air tight container.
Then I will section some off for the freezer, for movie nights, game nights and snacks.
There is always hummus in our fridge or freezer.
