There are almost unlimited ways to use hummus: You can serve it with celery, sliced cucumbers, and carrot sticks for dipping; use it instead of mustard or mayonnaise on a sandwich; serve it alongside grilled chicken, salmon, or shrimp; or — if it's really delicious — eat it with a spoon! This recipe puts a little twist on this classic Mediterranean staple by adding in sun-dried tomatoes. It takes just six minutes to make enough for four generous 1⁄3-cup servings. Sure, you can mash the chickpeas by hand, but the secret to a hassle-free process is a few pulses of the food processor.
