Hummus
A very popular dish in the Middle East, hummus is now all the rage in North America. In supermarkets you pay $3 for a small container. It is about 1/4 the price to make it yourself and it is a breeze! It is healthy and we love it as a snack (even the boys love it – Ben says it is like peanut butter)
