Yeah! I found Jane Broady's recipe on here - I used to make this all the time, but then hummus started becoming readily available at the grocery store, so it didn't seem practical anymore to buy the ingredients that actually cost as much or more than a container of it. BUT, my SIL made this recently, and I had forgotten how fabulous it is - way better than ANYTHING you get in the stores. It does take a little bit of effort - even more than some other hummus recipes because you cook the onions, but believe me, it is so worth it.

I am a teacher who is near the end of my career. I have many craft interests and have just added cooking to my list. Since I like to keep a check on what DH eats I usually try to follow the WW diet and just love their cookbooks. Recipezaar has become the answer to my many cookbooks and recipes I gather and just can't seem to get organized. MMMMM maybe in retirement.
