Savory Kale Hummus

This one is simple, but man, is it GOOD! Hummus gets an update as we swap out chickpeas for some delicious sautéed kale. The lemon and garlic really balance it out— make it this weekend for Labor Day festivities (I know the whole fam is going to LOVE it!)

I served mine with organic rainbow carrots but this would be delicious on sandwiches, toasts, or with any other veggies you usually have with hummus!
