So the other night I had this dream that Chris asked his boss for a raise and she said she’d consider it, but first she had to look in our fridge to see what kind of food we could afford. So she comes over and she’s like going through our vegetable drawer and all our shelves, and she pulls out a container of hummus and she’s like, “Hummus? Hummus is expensive! I’m not sure you need a raise if you can afford hummus.”
How random is that? So today I ate said hummus for a snack before lunch, and all I could think of was the hundreds of dollars I’ve spent on pureed chickpeas over the years. I mean, possibly even thousands. I’m kind of a big fan.

Hummus is kind of expensive. I’m reconsidering my grocery list.

hahahaha this is hilarious.
you have a food processor or blender?
just make it, thats what i do, ever since i realized how much i eat in comparison with how affordable it was when i made it.
lemme know if you want a recipe!
Haha… you know you love hummus when you have dreams about it!
I agree w/ Each, Hummus is so easy to make, and you can make huge batches of it too!
Sometimes dreams are so odd- that one is pretty funny. I like hummus as well, sometimes I buy the Fantastic (dry mix) in a box to make hummus- it kinda of makes too much. I can’t eat it all before I get tired of it. My favorite store bought brand, which is also the most expensive, is Sabra. It’s so smooth and it tastes amazing. But if its not on sale I just go for the cheaper not so smooth kind.
i have no idea what my boyfriends boss looks like. i even met him once too.
hummus is expensive and i dont like it very much so i mash up white beans with some curry powder and a bit of olive oil. costs, oh, about 80 cents for the can of beans and lasts forever.
Haha, now THAT’S an interesting dream!
I agree with the above posters, about the ease of making your own hummus. Plus, it tastes better than store-bought!! Here’s a link to the recipe that I use (higher protein content and lower fat content than store-bought):

Okay, now that’s funny!
What a funny dream! haha
Cara –
Thanks, it was weird.
Each –
Yeah, I used to make it all the time actually. I should do that again I guess.
Romina –
I dream about food a lot. Usually like chocolate though.
Brittany –
Is that stuff good? I like the falafel mix a lot actually but I’ve never tried the hummus. Sabra is good. I like the trader joe’s brand.
Kelly T –
That sounds really good.
VeggieGirl –
That recipe looks good, thanks.
Karen & Trust -
I know, random.
