How to make a basil pesto hummus
Basil pesto hummus: We love hummus here at The Big Dream Factory and make it so often that we love to mess around and experiment with ingredients as we continually test our recipes.
Some of our recipes have been making to the stores. However, this one for hummus with pesto alla Genovese, we thought you would enjoy having a go at yourselves since it is so easy!
We recommend that you make more than you think you need – it’s addictive and perfect for any party of hungry people.
