This lemon and dill hummus is full of flavor, fiber, & protein. Replacing the oil found in a traditional hummus recipe with aquafaba (the liquid from the chickpeas) makes this hummus low in fat and calories, too. Pair with some fresh veggies, whole grain pita chips or crackers for a great snack or make it the base for a veggie sandwich.

You can customize the flavor by using more or less lemon, dill, garlic, salt or pepper.
