What Is Hummus Dressing Made Of?
Hummus dressing is made of just 8 common ingredients:

Simply whisk all the ingredients together (quantities listed in the recipe below) and you’ve got yourself a delicious, creamy vegan dressing that goes great with almost any salad.
Serving Suggestions
This hummus dressing goes great with a simple romaine salad. It also pairs really nicely with darker leafy greens, so pour it all over your kale or spinach based salads! It’s great drizzled over roasted vegetables, grains, or anything else that needs an extra hit of flavor. You could also use it in place of the suggested dressings in many of my salad recipes, including:
- Vegan Burger Patty Salad
- Farro Salad
- Tequilaberry Salad
- Vegan Chicken Caesar Salad
- Veggie-Packed Nourish Bowls
This dressing saves well, so feel free to mix it up in advance and keep it in the refrigerator for up to five days. The flavors will only improve!
