GREEN CURRY AVOCADO HUMMUS

This is my favorite way to make HUMMUS; a hit during the late summer months for dinner parties, especially when serving food with a Latin flair. The addition of BLUE ELEPHANT Green Curry Paste gives this classic HUMMUS a brilliant, bright bend of basil that works so well with the lime and avocado.

And if you’re a fan of avocado toast, this is a delicious way to enjoy it for breakfast, lunch, or healthy afternoon pick me up…guaranteed.
