Hummus is a quick-to-make snack that is full of protein and fiber. Make it today, and keep it in the fridge so when your body starts to tell you it’s time for a snack, you’ll be ready! We like to serve it with homemade pita bread, or crunchy carrot sticks.

Making pita is a wonderful thing. The feel of cool flour then sticky dough on your hands; the energy and repetition required for kneading the dough; the miracle of watching yeast raise the dough; the yeasty smell in the kitchen; and finally watching pita quickly puff up in the oven before your eyes. This Greek bread is a feast for your senses.
Yield: 12 pita bread
Preparation Time: About 2 hours 15 minutes (including rising and resting times)
Baking Time: 3minutes @ 245 C (475 F)
