Here's what she originally had to say about this recipe: "A lower-fat version of the traditional Middle Eastern chickpea dip/spread. No oil and just enough tahini to give it that characteristic taste. From The Best-Kept Secrets of Healthy Cooking."

This hummus is the worst hummus I've ever had. I would not recommend it to anyone.

I would not recommend this recipe. It's too complicated and the results are not worth it.

This recipe is a waste of time. The hummus was bland and flavorless.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my hummus turned out grainy.

The hummus was a little too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding more yogurt.

I had some trouble finding roasted red peppers, but I eventually found them at my local grocery store.

This hummus is a bit more expensive to make than traditional hummus, but it's worth it.

I wasn't sure how I would like this hummus since it's made with Greek yogurt, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's delicious!

I love that this recipe uses Greek yogurt instead of tahini. It makes the hummus so much lighter and healthier.
