- Swap the Limes – Use Lemons in place of limes if you prefer one over the other.
- Spice it Up – Add more jalapeno or a hotter pepper for a spicier hummus.
- Swap the Cilantro – People love or hate cilantro. If you’re on the “it tastes like soap” bandwagon, swap it out for fresh parsley. It won’t taste exactly the same, but will still be delicious.
