I thought this recipe was wonderful! A great snack/ app for all year round. One question: Did everyone use plain hummus? or would anyone recommened a flavored one? Not sure if I should being it has all the spices/herbs on the bread already. So before i ruin my taste buds please let me know!

I really like this recipe. Very easy, although I do use my own home made hummus. NOTE: I do wish that people would actually try a recipe before writing a review.

For the person who thinks store bought hummus isn't any good, you havent tried TRADER JOE'S HUMMUS! But, if you must, make your own and give the recipe a try before rating it.
