Trader Joe’s markets always have something to taste introducing their
customers to different products. One day, as I wandered the store, they were
serving Edamame (soy bean) Hummus on crackers. Now, I don’t normally cotton to
hummus, kind of dry or grainy. But, this was amazingly creamy and tasty. They
hooked me. I have an acquaintance who is a hummus aficionado and loves his
garlicky. Loving garlic myself, I dumped my creamy new hummus into a bowl and
crushed two fresh garlic cloves into it. OMG! I could eat it by itself. But, I
took it to another level. Because of my Indian food hobby I’m very aware of
Trader Joe’s Nan bread both fresh and frozen. (I’ve always touted their amazing
frozen garlic Nan easy to keep on hand in the freezer.) In this case, though I
had picked up some fresh garlic Nan (very light garlic flavor) that I thought
might be a nice accompaniment to the hummus. The bread is thick and soft and
sooo good. I sliced the soft ovals into 1 ½” slices, topped each with a touch of butter (can be
omitted) and slathered with the hummus. I’m addicted and it's healthy food
that tastes great. I now regularly stop by Trader Joe’s just to keep hummus
on hand.
