Easy Tomato & Cucumber Hummus Dip

This post is sponsored by The Women Bloggers but my love for Bush’s Hummus Made Easy is all my own. #HummusMadeEasy

Now that it’s finally warming up outside, I’m starting to crave fresh veggies and snacks. This weekend I whipped up this amazing Hummus, Tomato, Cucumber, and Feta dip for a simple appetizer and it was so good!
I love experimenting with fresh ingredients and this dip did not last long before it was devoured. 

This appetizer serves a crowd and never disappoints! And it’s healthy! Totally something I feel comfortable serving to my friends and family…..and it doesn’t make you feel weighed down and heavy, like so many other appetizers. 


This dip will certainly be on rotation all Spring and Summer long and it’s great for last minute guests!
Here’s what you’ll need: 


Bush’s Hummus Made Easy, one can of Bush’s garbanzo beans, one tomato, one cucumber, and some feta cheese (to taste). 
First you’ll need to make your hummus…..that’s right, make it yourself! It is super easy….all I did was blend one can of garbanzo beans with Bush’s new Hummus Made Easy mix. It took literally one minute to do and it was delicious!


Next, chop up your veggies. 

Then pour your hummus in to a pretty dish, then top with veggies and then sprinkle on your feta. It’s that easy. And that yummy. 


And….it tastes just as good as it looks. 


I’m keeping theses stocked in my pantry for last minute entertaining options! Bush’s Hummus Made Easy mixes are available at Walmart and comes in different flavors. They have no preservatives and really tastes so yummy. I can’t get over how easy it was to make hummus by myself. Just beans and the mix and you’re done! These all taste great on their own with the perfect dipping chip of course!
