Notes

Add other vegetables of your choice: Hummus works with any vegetable. If you're not a fan of a particular one in this recipe, feel free to change to another veggie that you like.
Store the hummus in the fridge: Store the remaining hummus in the refrigerator for up to 2 days and use it to make more sandwiches or other recipes that call for a delicious chickpea hummus.
Use your favorite type of bread: We've used country loaf bread, but any bread will work with this recipe.
