This Hummus & Veggies is a recipe you have to try. So easy to make, take no much time, and is super nourishing. As most of my original recipes this one is mixed with tropical flavors, at the same time that we keep most of the original cultural ingredients.

As a hit in the yoga retreats that I used to have the pleasure to serve on the Caribbean coast, participants used to bring back home this recipe with them to prepare it to their families.

I recommend to serve them in side of a fresh pita bread and a beautiful green salad. Also the option of corn tortilla is amazing. Or just serve on top of an Abundant bed of mixed greens and add some extra olive oil, salt and pepper. Buen Provecho!
