Sweet & Savory Thursday ~~ "1/2 & 1/2 Hummus"

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 - 15 oz. can Garbanzo beans, drained
• 1 - 15 oz. can Cannellini beans, drained 
• 1/2 cup lowfat plain yogurt
• 1 tsp. hot sauce (I used Cajun Sunshine)
• 1 Tbsp. lemon juice
• 1/2 tsp. garlic pepper seasoning
• Balsamic vinegar

INSTRUCTIONS:

• Drain and thoroughly rinse beans in colander.
• Place beans in food processor.
• Add yogurt, lemon juice, hot sauce and garlic pepper seasoning.
• Puree until smooth.
• Place in serving dish.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

• Drizzle with slight amount of balsamic vinegar.
• Serve with veggies, apple slices, pita bread, flat bread, chips, dill pickles, green olives, or other items of your choice.
• By adding a swirl of balsamic vinegar before serving, it seems to provide a tasty balance.  
• On a personal note, the flavor of this hummus was more enhanced when eating it on apple and veggie slices.
• This is a great dish to serve at the start of an evening with family or friends as the 1/2 and 1/2 hummus seems to disappear much quicker than the normal variety.
• Give it a try, and let me know what you think!
