Egg hummus (3 variations)

This egg hummus is the perfect way to use up the boiled eggs you have on hand, whether they're left over from Easter or you've just made them for the week. The eggs give the hummus an incredibly airy and airy texture that makes it creamier and softer than the traditional version. Combined with chickpeas, you get a nutritious and fiber-rich spread that's both delicious and filling.

Apart from the taste, this hummus also impresses with its colours. You can experiment with adding colourful vegetables. Here I present 3 variations, with beetroot for a baby pink, spinach and basil for a fresh green or red peppers for a warm red-orange hue. As someone who has spent a long time studying how colors affect our perceptions of food, I can confirm that color can affect appetite and taste sensation, even before the first bite. So, this spread is the perfect spectacular appetizer to offer your guests. I guarantee they will be impressed!

Easy to make and rich in protein and fiber, this egg hummus is great for breakfast, in a sandwich, as an addition to a salad or simply as a tasty appetizer and snack any time of year.
