Hummus anyone?

After all this hot weather, my friend Ellie decided to host a BBQ. So I thought I would make some dips to bring along. 

They're much quicker than cooking most other things & the recipes make loads! I had at least a jar full of every dip & 2 jars for both the hummus (orange dip) and the green pea dip (the green one)! Personally I think they go best with breadsticks or naan bread, but I guess you can use them for anything.



All the recipes came from the BBC food website, so here are the links, from left to right:

Roasted Red Pepper Hummus, Green Pea Dip & Cucumber and Mint Raita.

    I love hummus so much.. I used to eat 2 pots in one sitting until I realised I could no longer support such an addiction. I know try to limit it to 1 pot a week. Still love it though!

    I just found your blog and I absolutely adore it! It oozes creativity. I am so envious of all the travelling you have done too.

    These look like such yummy dips. I will have to note the recipe down so that I can make them during the summer.
