Smooth Hummous

Chez Desirée's Note:

This hummous is especially good for children although adults seem to love it too! I put hummous on almost everything and this one is especially yummy. Sometimes I add even more apple sauce if I want it sweet.

This is a very interesting combination but definately a winner!!! My daughter who hates beans loved this. I am taking it camping for a heathly snack for all of us.

Peanut butter and applesauce in hummous? You have got to be kidding! But oddly enough, it's delicious! The peanut butter is a fantastic alternative to techina, and the applesauce adds a nice sweetness to the hummous. I added some fresh cilantro simply because I like cilantro in my hummous. Just please don't tell my kids what's in here, they'll never eat it again if they knew...

This is delicious and less fattening than the conventional hummous. It does make rather a lot though, so next time I might only make half the quantity.
