Make Red Lentil Hummus for a Snack

Did you play Powerball? I thought the excitement around a billion dollars was pretty fun. When I went into the gas station near my house, there was a line out the door. You could feel the excitement and hope in the air and I was really into it.

I actually had never played Powerball so the scantron form I had to fill out felt a bit like taking the SATs, which was a terrible memory. Haha. Unfortunately all the numbers I felt like were coming to me didnt pan outsad face! Fortunately, earlier in the day I had made this lentil hummus and it was a perfect snack to ease my Im-not-gonna-be-a-billionaire-feeling.

Hummus is always a staple in my refrigerator. Its such an easy thing to have in a tupperware container whenever the urge to snack is in full force. This hummus, made with lentils instead of chickpeas, is silky smooth, way smoother than the chickpea variety. I also loved the flavor of chickpeas. Hopefully you like it too!
