5 minute hummus


what's for breakfast? i am terrible about cooking breakfast- so not a morning person! 
we are trying out non-breakfast foods for breakfast since we aren't big fans of the traditional stuff (although i love a good waffle). but when ry requested hummus i was thrilled since i could make it the night before and he could have breakfast right away without waiting for me to make it. this recipe is so easy and good- no excuses not to make it now!
