The comment you left about me having the ingredients for that soup. Funny stuff. If you didn't realize I actually had that listed on the same post that I was going to make that. haha. I've got it cooking now. <BR/>I also made the dill hummus and while I like dill I'm not crazy about this dill hummus recipe I tried. Next I'm going to try a roasted red pepper hummus recipe! You read my mind!Karihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04384609908775866751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5438436156867169341.post-11636288310257171782009-03-15T17:35:00.000-07:002009-03-15T17:35:00.000-07:00Other than your recipe for "Roasted Red Pepper Hummus Among Us", I've never been able to make good homemade hummus. It always seems to come out WAY too garlicky. Ack!!!AJShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16887082927368201112noreply@blogger.com
