Butternut Squash Hummus

If you follow this blog, you already know that my son loves hummus! It's one of his favorite foods - he eats it as dip with chicken and pita, mixed in with rice, on toast and by the spoonful. Since I also love it... we make it A LOT around the Miller home. I like to mix up the flavors often so we don't get bored. Today, I tried roasted Butternut Squash Hummus for the first time and it was a great treat, the perfect twist! Tilman was scooping it right out of the Magic Bullet as soon as I blended it... and this was after he had just polished off a big lunch!

HERE'S MY RECIPE...

What you need:
1 can garbanzo beans, drained
1/4C diced, roasted (or sauted) butternut squash

1TBSP tahini paste
1tsp sea salt
