This is a great combination. I cut this in half and used basil as my italian seasoning. Made for ZWT6 for the Voracious Vagabonds

I thought the salsa was totally awesome!! Loved all the flavors and the feta added just the right kick to make it a little different from other salsas. Lovely!! The hummus was good, but I can't say I could find any noticeable difference with the addition of the sour cream. Served with garlic pita chips!

Sooo easy and yummy! I doubled the recipe and I only got a little taste as I sent this with DH and his friends for their annual "guy's weekend" at the lake! There was none left after the first night according to DH! I sent stacy's pita chips and they loved it! Thanks for posting! Made for The Queens of Quisine ZWT6 Zingo!

This was a delightful duo from my teammate! I agree with other reviewers, the feta part of the salsa was a huge hit, nice and salty, mixing with the onion, garlic, and Italian seasoning you simply cannot go wrong. The hummus was great too, I didn't realize you could make a creamer version by just adding sour cream!! This is totally delish and served with homemade pita chips! Made for ZWT6 2010

I tried the Salsa dip only and found it to be excellent! I was surprised at how the simple ingredients meshed well together. This would also be good on crostini if pita chips are not available
