When you think of hummus, you probably think of a classic Middle Eastern dish consisting of mashed chickpeas, olive oil, tahini, lemon juice, and little else, right?

Well, while that might be the traditional interpretation of hummus, did you know that creative foodies are now starting to experiment with all kinds of hummus flavors?

One of the hottest food trends in 2019 is the introduction of bold, daring hummus flavors. This classic dip is now not only used for dipping in pita bread. Now, it can even be a dessert.

Avocado Hummus

One variety that we should’ve probably seen coming is avocado hummus. Avocado is also madly popular now, so joining forces with the trendy hummus was just a matter of time. This hummus flavor is rich, and oh-so-delicious with tortilla chips.

Hummus Peas

Ever wanted to try edamame or peas in your hummus? That’s possible now too. These unique ingredients give the hummus a strange green hue, but you’re guaranteed to think that it’s especially delicious when eaten with veggies.

Hummus Dessert

Dessert hummus is now a thing. Chocolate hummus is a new trend that you can also find in stores and in recipes. Dip strawberries or apples in it, and you’ll be surprised at just how tasty it is.
