Kale Pesto Hummus

I love adding extra veggies in to my diet wherever I can. I created this bright green hummus, loaded with kale and fresh herbs! It is a blend of pesto and hummus. Full of protein, healthy fats, and nutrients. Hummus takes on any flavor you add into it. Other items i like to add to my hummus is sun dried tomatoes, roasted garlic, butternut squash, edamame, and beets!
