I forgot to give you feedback… but yes, I did try it last week. I used ground flaxseed as I didn’t want it to be too visible. I found that it did not alter the flavour of my hummus at all. It tasted great with the added benefit of flaxseed. What a super idea. Thanks my friend!
Thank you sweets! I love that you are trying my recipes.
Are you on Instagram/ Twitter/ Facebook so we can connect? π
Looks delicious Krystina! I would have never thought of adding flaxeed to hummus. Have a great long weekend!

Thank you sweetheart!!

Thank you sweetheart! π
Great idea to include flaxseed here for added nutrition. Do you use whole or ground? I gather it does not alter the taste much?
I use both actually. I do prefer to use ground. π
It really doesn’t alter the taste much between the two.
Thank you. I will give it a try the next time I make hummus… which should be soon!
Yay, I can’t wait!!
