Hummus is one of those foods that I sadly didn’t experience until I was an adult. I know that the rich hearty flavors would have been adored by my whole food-loving taste buds from an early age. But now that it is on my radar, I simply love experiencing the many flavor varieties. And this artichoke hummus is currently a favorite, right up there with red pepper hummus and olive hummus.
Fortunately, hummus is insanely easy to prepare and is so nutrient-dense, it can even be the center of a meal. And this artichoke hummus uses mostly pantry ingredients, so it can be thrown together on a whim, for lunchboxes, afternoon snacking, or even dinner.
Beyond straight up dipping, you might like this protein-packed artichoke hummus in mashed potatoes, pinwheels, pasta, twice baked potatoes, or pita pizzas!

Hummus is very nutritious if made the right way. Thanks, a lot for this recipe. I will try making the oil free version.
I made this tonight oil free, added a little more lemon juice and a wedge of lime with the rind. So GOOD!!!! Thank you!
Better late than never to try hummus for the first time. It’s delicious and honestly, I bet adding in the artichoke makes it super creamy and packed with even more flavor! I love this idea… extra veggies, too!
