As many of you know, I’m a hummus lover. Like hummus addict. That’s a good thing, in my opinion. In fact, I’ve been known to make a whole meal out of hummus. Really, check out my IG post from last week and you”ll totally see why! Don’t worry, I’ll share my reasoning here as well. Hummus is one of those vegetarian/gluten free appetizers that’s just so good, so filling (fiber and plant based protein to boot!), it’ so good for you (rich in non heme iron), that it actually becomes an unofficial meal. Yes, a satisfying SNACKAGE Meal! But wait, I’m not just talking about a plain ol’ jane hummus and crackers. Nope. I’m talking about this. VEGGIE LOADED Warm Mediterranean Spinach Artichoke HUMMUS DIP! This, my friends, is a meatless unofficial meal you can enjoy ANY TIME of day.
Okay, so what exactly is an unofficial meal?
A unofficial Meal is a wholesome everyday snack or appetizer that just fills you up and give you energy, just like a healthy meal. It can occur any time! Afternoon, post dinner, heck, an unofficial meal can occur anytime you need that energy boost! Or, if you are like me, you make this Warm Hummus Dip a meal when you need to throw together a meal on minimal ingredients. That happens a lot in our house. Haha, whoops!
Anyway, back to Hummus obsession and making the most out of snack time. No “formal meal” rules here ya’ll. It’s a come as you are and enjoy type of snack sharing recipe and I have Sabra to thank for that! Sabra hummus. Fresh, satisfying, Sabra Hummus. If you don’t know this brand, you’ve been living under a rock. I’m kidding. Kinda. But in all honesty, adding Sabra Hummus to this Warm Mediterranean Spinach Artichoke Hummus Dip is the KEY nutritional ingredient to this whole Unofficial Meal
It’s what boosts the protein in a once regular veggie dip. It’s always what makes it extra filling. Sabra Hummus is made with fresh chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans), tahini and a touch of garlic. Simple, real food, Non GMO ingredients!
I’m sure you’re wondering what else is in this Greek Style Hummus Dip. Oh yea, it’s magic I tell you. And all it takes is a little blending.
- Roasted Red Pepper HUMMUS
- Artichoke
- Spinach
- Greek Style Yogurt

You see, it’s an appetizer that’s truly is a meal in itself (I might have paired it with a white wine). Perfect for noshing and nourishing! Share it or hog it. I won’t judge. Eat it as a dip or spoon it on all the things food related toast, flatbread, veggie wraps! The ideas are endless.
Warning –> Once you start making warm hummus dip, you can’t stop. As a hummus addict, I might have gone overboard. 3 batches in one week. Not sorry.
Let the unofficial meal season begin! You’re invited to my place first. Mmm k?
Cheers!
This looks absolutely wonderful. Is there a way to make this vegan?
Sure! I would try using a non dairy yogurt and nutritional yeast in place of parmesan. I haven’t tried it but I think it would work!
I made this to share with friends and everyone loved it! You are my secret weapon for getting together with friends. Everyone always loves the recipes of your that I make and I appreciate that I bring healthy food to the snack table.

Thông tin hữu ích. Tôi may mắn tôi phát hiện ra trang web của bạn vô tình, và tôi choáng váng vì sao sự biến đổi số phận này đã không xảy ra trước! Tôi đã đánh dấu nó.
Useful information. Lucky me I discovered your website accidentally, and I am stunned why this twist of fate did not happened in advance! I bookmarked it.

Hi, in the second bullet point of the recipe, you have adding “1/3 cup cheese” twice, even though “1/3 cup Parmesan” is the only cheese item listed. Am I missing something? Thanks…
Oh sorry. My recipe plugin is malfunctioning. You just need 1/3 c in the mix to bake and then 1/4 on top. Does that make sense? I’ll update recipe soon! Thanks
You had me at hummus and then you threw in artichokes which just sweetened the entire deal for me.
Almost all of my meals are unofficial. Ha! 🙂
I so thought of you with artichoke!
My mouth is watering after reading all of these amazing hummus recipes. I would love to try making this one for our next cocktail party.
I’ll take the roasted red pepper hummus please… OMGgggg, but then you added artichokes, cheese and spinach! My switch is flipped! But I’ve never tried hummus dip warm.. I gotta do it! Such excellent points made about the nutritional value of hummus.. spread it on EVERYTHING I say! Delicious work Linds.. pinning and saving to make! Thank you! 😀
Unofficial meals are definitely the way I roll most days. This dip looks so good and such a creative twist on a classic! I love that you used Sabra here – it’s the only hummus brand we buy because it’s just that good!!
I love hummus! And I love everything about this recipe! I can’t wait to try it!
I’m a big fan of hummus and this looks delicious Lindsey! Those salty chickpeas, the hummus, artichokes, so much deliciousness (yep it’s a word) going on here.
Deliciousness is exactly what comes to mind when I think of this hummus too! Thanks Sarah!
This looks incredible! I would be spreading it on ALL THE THINGS! <3
I like the way you think Kristy!
Face planting totally allowed, right friend?! Cause that’s just what I want to do!
Totally allowed Taylor! Go for it! ?
Making a warm dip with hummus is brilliant! Wish I had some of this right about now! 😀
Thanks, Jessica! And hope you satisfy your Sabra fix soon! hehe
I have everything for this except the artichoke! It may have to happen tonight… maybe over a sweet potato. I can’t ever get enough hummus. You rock, brother!
This would be perfectly acceptable to eat for dinner right?!
Oh absolutely! I know it works as dinner for me! hehe
I love Sabra hummus!! It’s our go-to brand when I’m not making it myself. Your addons look so scrumptious!! Beautiful photos!
Yes, Sabra all the way! Thanks Elaine!
You know I’d totally sign up for anything hummus! Sabra makes my life easy!
So true Suzy!
Unofficial Meal? Sign me up. This looks delicious and I don’t think I could share this. It looks so tasty and and would be a hit at any table. Party included!
lol can’t blame you for no sharing! It’s THAT good! ?
I love this fresh twist on hummus. And that bowl of hummus goodness looks fabulous!
Thanks Debi! Let me know if you try!
I recently made a spinach artichoke with beans rather than cream cheese and sour cream and it was divine!! Using hummus makes that even easier 🙂 BRILLIANT!
Now…. can you just send us to the Mediterranean in order to TRULY enjoy this??
Great idea!! Let’s go! I’ll bring the Sabra!! hehe
Isn’t Sabra hummus the best? I love this recipe with so much fresh, spring flavor. My boys eat that hummus by the spoonful, so I’m sure this would be a huge hit! Beautiful photos, as usual!
Yes it’s the best! That’s awesome your boys love hummus! This would make a great afternoon snack for them! Thanks Blair!
Hmm… I feel like I could cuddle up with a bowl of this for dinner tonight and be wonderfully satisfied!
