Hummus is a great snack for everyone in the family, and it’s super easy to make at home. My friend Molly taught me a trick to make the best hummus: let it go in the food processor significantly longer than you think it should go. Turn it on and walk away. Read a book, meditate, drink a glass of wine…ok, it’s only 2 minutes in the food processor, but it feels like a really long time.
