Wonderful recipe! I love the tang of the lemon juice and the zip of the cayenne. Wonderful snack and healthy too!

This is a wonderful hummus recipe and takes to some additions without any problems. I added a bit more olive oil, 1 tsp Chalupa hot sauce, a bit more salt and generous grinding of black pepper and 1/2 tsp cumin to the basic recipe. Drizzled some more olive oil on surface before serving. Delicious eating! Thank you mewack for posting this recipe.
