This Balsamic-Infused Hummus is oil-free, and only requires 6 ingredients! Homemade hummus is cheaper and so much healthier than store-bought. This one takes less than 10 minutes to prepare, plus it goes great on so many things.

If you've ever checked the ingredients label on hummus you buy from the store, you might be shocked at the processed oils and preservatives that's in them. Before I really knew how to eat healthy, I use to eat store-bought hummus all the time. Little did I know what I was actually eating.

Now I make it at home and it's even more delicious than anything you'll find at the grocery store. It feels good when you know exactly everything you're eating. This balsamic hummus is so easy to make it might shock you!

All you have to do is throw all the ingredients in a food processor, blend and you're done! It can easily be flavored other ways, but the balsamic-infused version is definitely a favorite.

You can't beat the fresh taste or nutritional benefits of this homemade version. It's a great snack with veggie sticks and I love eating it with falafel balls too.

I recently made this for my cooking class at Whole Foods Market at it was a hit! Be sure to follow on me on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter to see when and where I'll be doing my next cooking demo.
