BLT Hummus Wraps
I love hummus. We're talking L.O.V.E. One of the problems is my self control. Put me around some chips and hummus and stand back people! It isn't pretty. Granted, the hummus I make is healthy and has very little oil but still. I need to learn some self control. I even think about hummus a lot. I know, still working on that self control issue. I was thinking about a bacon hummus. Bacon makes everything better, right? I thought about adding the bacon right to the hummus but then thought about that little self control issue. Hmmm... How about adding hummus to a BLT? I figured not quite as dangerous as me, chips and a bowl of hummus. It was awesome. I could enjoy my hummus AND put into practice a little self control, I mean, how many of these babies can you eat! I managed to eat two for dinner and was more than satisfied. I also used turkey bacon which tastes great and is way more healthy. I ended up putting a couple of tablespoons of bacon grease in the hummus, it didn't really taste that much. I usually put a bit of sesame oil in hummus but was hoping the bacon taste would come out more. The turkey bacon doesn't yield much oil so I used my refrigerator reserves. I think skipping the bacon grease would be fine, the turkey bacon had enough bacon taste for me. It was really good as a BLT wrap!!
