{kale & sundried tomato hummus}

Every time lately I've had to bring food for my bible study group, I bring my Easy Hummus with an assortment of veggies. But I wanted to make something different.

So I made hummus.  BUT it was much different. And it got rave reviews from the ladies and several asking me for the recipe. 

This recipe is adapted from one by Vegan Yum Yum.

Just an FYI, I used kale from a huge bag of it I had in the freezer. Just put it in my steaming basket like you would fresh kale. Bagged kale can still have some tough stem parts. So I tore those off before steaming it.

Enjoy!
