Hummus with pine nuts and olives

Hummus is one of my favorite snacks and also one of the easiest things to make. It’s more cost efficient to make at home, the prep work is minimal, and it also tastes significantly better. An ingredient in the recipe some people may not be familiar with is tahini. Thanini is a seed butter made from sesame seeds. Similar to natural peanut butter it needs to be mixed well before using. It can be bought at most grcoery stores in the ethnic aisles or it can be purchased on amazon.
