I love hummus. There are about as many varieties of hummus as there are ways to spell it! Hummus is a transliteration of the Arabic: حمّص; also spelled hamos, hommos, hommus, homos, houmous, hummos, hummous, or humus. In this recipe, we will add smoked paprika. If you haven't tried smoked paprika yet, you are in for a treat. It is becoming more common in your local grocery store. Find it, buy it, use it on almost everything and you won't be disappointed.

Enjoy the hummus with fresh veggies and pita.
