Buttered Nuts Hummus (Curry Roasted Butternut Squash Hummus)
Let’s get this straight, we are NOT talking about ‘Nut Butter’ which is too nasty and twisted for words.
Roasted and Curried Butternut Squash makes this hummus different and absolutely delicious- If you love Butternut Squash you will be amazed with the Butternut Squash flavor of this hummus
Not only is this a super-food, but also a ‘Skinny Dip’ – No nudity required (Unless you want to)
Be sure to pair it with our homemade PITA chips (Despite the fun acronym, they are definitely not a Pain-In-The-Ass.)
You can also serve Buttered Nuts Hummus with an assortment of fresh vegetables.
Easy recipe, Delicious, and Bougie- to-die-for, right out of the oven. This appetizer is perfect for Fall.
