This quick and simple appetizer features a fresh and flavorful hummus recipe that also makes a wonderful sandwich spread or dip for raw vegetables. Little boats of endive cradle the bright green hummus and shrimp in an easy to grab dish, perfect for your next party. The hummus gets is color from the fresh parsley and great flavor from cumin, lemon and garlic. We use a sprig of dill to top each spear but a little sprinkle of parsley will also work.
