SPINACH-ARTICHOKE HUMMUS

A recipe I made up for Super Bowl Sunday, inspired by some really good store-bought spinach-artichoke hummus. I thought that using hummus as a base was a brilliant way to veganize spinach-artichoke dip (one of my favorites), so I decided to make my own, chunkier version. Serve with Recipe #473753. See my blog post here: http://veganomics101.wordpress.com/2012/02/06/spinach-artichoke-hummus-with-fresh-pita-chips/
