Hummus Layer Dip, lemon scented hummus loaded with fresh veggies. A healthy addition to any Super Bowl party!
When you think about Super Bowl, healthy food doesn’t usually come to mind. Wings, sliders, mini-hot dogs, spinach artichoke dip and cheese fries…diet disaster! Try keeping it on the lighter side this year by including a few appetizers that are both delicious and guilt free!
I know this recipe isn’t all that original, but it is a tried and true crowd pleaser! I made this recipe from Allrecipes.com before and it was loved by all. This time around, I upped the veggie content by adding romaine lettuce and roasted red peppers.
For a gluten-free alternative, serve with sliced cucumbers!
Update: A reader suggested to add another layer of hummus to hold the dip together better and I totally agree with her! And, while it sure does look pretty layered in a trifle bowl, it’s a little hard to scoop out with a chip. Provide a serving spoon along side or arrange dip in a long, shallow cooking dish.
