This is one of the easiest and least expensive types of hummus to make too! Cannellini beans are so mild you play with any number of flavor combinations by changing up the oil (try sesame oil!), spices (smoked paprika!), or add-ins (fresh rosemary, cilantro or tarragon!)… makes an excellent filling for wraps too!
