As I was walking through my local produce market, wine & beer shop, I noticed with the regular hummus there is now single-serve hummus packaged with pretzels.
When I was a kid, I wanted those handi-snacks of cracks and cheese and my mom always said no. Now that I’m an adult and do my own shopping, I make my own version of it with pretzel crisps and laughing cow cheese. I also do carrots or hummus. If you want to make your own hummus, I have a recipe.
You could buy the Sabra single-serve snack cup (I don’t remember the price) or you could make your own with two containers from Rubbermaid or LunchBlox (affiliate link below) both of which I have added to my lunch packing collection.
