Open the container and serve chilled. It is ready to eat straight from the package.

It pairs well with a variety of dippers, from crunchy pita chips and vegetable sticks to hearty crackers. It can also be used as a spread in sandwiches, wraps, and even as a component in grain bowls.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional chickpea hummus, this version uses a blend of black beans and edamame. This substitution creates a slightly earthier flavor and a creamier, denser consistency. The southwest seasoning also distinguishes it from plain varieties, offering a spicier and more complex taste experience.
Who it is for
Anyone looking for a flavorful and convenient dip or spread.
How to keep the rest
Refrigerate after opening. Keep the container tightly closed to maintain freshness. It is best consumed within a few days of opening to enjoy its optimal flavor and texture. Ensure it is stored on a shelf in the refrigerator, not in the door where temperatures can fluctuate.
