Hummus is the ultimate versatile snack, and this everything bagel seasoning hummus goes with, well, everything! Dip your veggies and chips, or spread on crackers, sandwiches, and toast.
Let me just start by giving you a full weather report because that's what we do in Wisconsin (seriously. Strike up a conversation in Wisco and you will talk about weather. Extensively). But here we are, in the midst of a GIANT snowstorm that started last night and is still going strong, and I'm thinking about everything bagel seasoning hummus. And lasagna for some reason. But mostly hummus and our general need for (healthy) snacks at all times.
Sooo back it up for a sec and let me tell you something else real quick. Yesterday I started a new job! It's at the same company I've been working at for four (FOUR?! stop.) years now. It went very smoothly, except for the fact that a few meetings got cancelled due to folks wanting to get home before the snowstorm (typical midwest winter situation). I'm always a little nervous when I start new jobs or have a big day ahead, because I'm prone to epic -- though comical -- mishaps.
For example, when I started my first internship at this company the summer after graduating college, I biked to work on my first day despite the weather forecasting a severe thunderstorm. I distinctly remember hopping on my biking, observing dark, ominous clouds in the distance and thinking, Eh. I can beat that. NOPE.
About a block away from work, it suddenly started to torrentially downpour, raining my mascara off my lashes and even my contacts out of my eyes -- ha! I found myself blind, soaked, with a water-damaged phone, and oh, P.S. Tera, you decided to wear an off-white skirt today. OH HIIII everyone yes that would be my underwear you are now seeing through my skirt thank you very much.
I entered my work building for orientation and was offered a towel (must've looked wet or something...), and had to change into the free t-shirt we were given as interns -- you know, like the cotton ones you get when you volunteer for something or play a high school sport? Super professional. And throughout the day I was most often greeted with, "Ohh. You were the girl that got rained on." LOL. The cherry on top? I got home from that first day of work to find that I had put my replacement shirt on backwards. See what I mean by epic mishaps?!
Anyway, nothing like that happened on my first day yesterday, and I'm proud of it. I didn't even spill my coffee! And I'm generally very excited about this new job 🙂
BUT. There are more important things to talk about right now. Namely, food, snacks, and everything bagel seasoning hummus.
This "everything" bagel seasoning. We've talked about it before in the context of this everything spice avocado toast, and it is delicious both on and off the bagel. You can make it yourself or buy it in the store -- either way, it has high potential for becoming one of your spice cabinet staples.
Honestly? I think I've gone through... approximately four jars of everything bagel seasoning in the past year, which makes it the most-used seasoning in my spice cabinet. Yyyyup. Everything bagel seasoning crept right up there behind cinnamon and smoked paprika, and once I started using it as my go-to baked chicken topping, it became #1, SO. If you haven't tried it yet, you should totally get some (or make some!) and put it on anything and everything savory within your reach. I'm serious. Starting with this easy and delicious everything bagel seasoning hummus and ending with your next pizza crust (seriously that's a good idea, though, right?!).
So, friends. This is one of those situations where you put a handful of ingredients in a food processor, and presto! You've just created a bowl of deliciousness ready to be consumed by all those in need of a snack.
Which means... everything bagel seasoning hummus is not only perfect for everyday snacking and sandwich-making, but it's also the perfect healthy spread/dip to put out for Super Bowl, whether you're hosting or just hanging out with your family. I'm not super hardcore about watching Super Bowl, but I am super hardcore about eating Super Bowl snacks near people who are super hardcore about watching Super Bowl, so trust me when I say, this will go over BIG. Especially if you surround it by tons of different and delicious varieties of whole grain crackers, chips (pita, sweet potato, tortilla), fresh veggies, pretzels, bread, and general snack-y, dippable things.
Let's not kid ourselves, here. Snacks = happiness. So we should stock our cabinets with everything bagel seasoning and make some hummus.
