OK Alicia this one is for you!

If ya'll are wondering What the HECK is Hummus?....
Hummus is a creamy puree of chickpeas and tahini (sesame seed paste) seasoned with lemon juice and garlic, and is a popular spread and dip in Greece and throughout the Middle East. Hummus can be served as part of a meze platter; with bread or vegetable crudités for dipping; as a spread or filling for pita, lavash or Turkish pide bread; or as a tasty, creamy alternative to butter, or Mayo in sandwiches. A spoonful or two of hummus can also be added to Middle Eastern or Greek-style pilafs and stews to add richness. I LOVE IT in this wrap for lunch.
I eat em with Stacey's Pita chips...and as a matter of fact I will be posting how to make PITA bread this next week too!
