Would you guys totally hate me if I said this was my favorite hummus ever?! Especially since I said this hummus and this hummus and this hummus were my favorites too? Let’s just say that the hummus I have in front of me is my favorite hummus, okay? Love the hummus you’re with, right?! I can also that hummus is my favorite dip ever! You can dip crackers into it, eat it with vegetables, put it on flatbread, add it to wraps, spread it on toast, or just eat it with a spoon which is one of my favorite ways to enjoy it 🙂
Curry Cilantro Hummus is actually the very first recipe I ever published on this blog, which makes it very close to my heart! I was so excited that I was starting my blog and also very impatient. I needed something really quick to make but also something really delicious and flavorful. And, trust me, this hummus definitely fits the bill!
I’ve changed things up a little bit since that first recipe and this one is even creamier and more delicious! It only takes about 5 minutes to make and if you are anything like me, it will only take about 5 minutes to eat!
The heat this summer has made me so tired and unmotivated to cook many things, so I’m all over quick and easy recipes that don’t require a trip to the grocery store or turning on the stove. Although the store is only 2 minutes from our house, sometimes it seems so far! And the walk from the car into the store can be killer! So, basically it is out of laziness and heat exhaustion that I’ve been eating hummus for every meal lately 🙂

LOL! I love all the hummus too! There’s a jalapeño cilantro one I get from Fresh & Easy (do you have those in AZ?) that I love, love, love. So I’m definitely on board with the cilantro! I love curry too, so this sounds like a great combo!!

This looks like the creamiest hummus, ever! Kai is obsessed with hummus, he eats it by the spoonful! I should try this recipe out for him.

What an awesome idea! I’ve never thought about making hummus with curry. Sounds fantastic!
Katie @ Whole Nourishment says
Curried hummus with cilantro – a perfect pairing. Yum! It’s hot here and I don’t feel like making much effort in the kitchen either, so no-cook dips like this are the perfect solution.

You sound like me but my favorites are always veggie burgers, haha! When you love something you just can’t help it.
I can see why you like it so much though- the flavors sound so unique and inviting! And yes to all of the recipes that only take 2 mins! I’m right there with you, girl!

I have yet to meet a hummus I don’t like. And this one sure does sound delicious! Love the flavors, and that pretty green color : )

I think this could definitely be my favorite hummus, too! I love the addition of cilantro, Izzy! And I’ve never thought to add curry to hummus. Sounds so flavorful! Love it!
Dannii @ Hungry Healthy Happy says
I am exactly the same with hummus. Every time I make a new flavour I swear it is my favourite flavour ever, until the next one comes along. But I can totally see why you think that about this one. A little bit of curry flavour goes a looooong way.
Medha @ Whisk & Shout says
Curried anything is just amazing and I love adding cilantro to everything 🙂
