When I first saw a picture (on Pinterest I think?) of someone using houmous instead of tomato sauce on a pizza base, I couldn’t get my head round it at all.
But being the worlds number one fan of that tasty little dip I knew I had to try it, and boy is it good! It doesn’t change consistency at all (not sure what I was expecting it to do), it just flavours the pizza to perfection.
I can see you’re all pulling the funny face that I initially did but seriously, don’t knock it till you try it. If you love houmous as much as me, I promise you’re gonna adore loading up your pizza with it :)
Houmous on Pizza??!
Ingredients
- 1 plain pizza base
- Tub of houmous
- Whatever toppings you fancy. I piled on roasted veggies and a couple of slices chopped up salami
Instructions
- Not sure you really need instructions for how to pile up a pizza, but just in case you do...
- Slather a good sized dollop of houmous on your pizza base, pile up you toppings, bake for 20ish minutes in an oven around the 180 mark.
- Proper. Good. Grub. :)

Great idea! I don’t think I ever would have thought of that, and being Armenian, I’ve certainly eaten my share of Hummos over the years … and several other people’s share as well. ;)
Jane Sarchet says
I know right, to be honest it all sounded pretty gross to me which is why I had to try it. Let us know when you try it what you think :)

hm why not, in fact I have seen something similar but in a chapati roll (kind of the same no?) lol
I can imagine that hummus would go well on a pizza! thanks for sharing
