Hellmann’s Mayonnaise Is BOGO At Publix – Stock Up For My Butternut Squash Hummus

We eat a lot of hummus here at my house… a LOT!

We can go through 4 – 5 store bought containers in a week. That can get really expensive, so I often make my own hummus so that I can make a double or triple batch. I’ve also learned that adding other ingredients to a basic hummus can really pump up the flavor and sometimes even bulk up the quantity.

One of my favorite things to add to hummus is roasted veggies. Some of my favorite are: pumpkin, sweet potatoes, eggplant and what I am sharing today – butternut squash! I just cut the veggies in chunks, toss in a little Hellmann’s Mayonnaise and roast until they caramelize. That great taste goes into a standard hummus recipe for an a dip/spread that is absolutely amazing!

Put out with some pita, raw veggies or crispy bagel chips for a snack that’s packed with flavor. It’s also perfect on a salad with some grilled salmon or simply spread on bread as a condiment for your favorite sandwich. And if you want to just eat it by the spoonful, don’t worry—I won’t tell!

There are so many uses, you’ll want to make this recipe every single week!
