If you have some leftover cooked Pumpkin (roasted OR steamed), puree it, and mix it with Hummus. I used store-bought Hummus. Pureed Pumpkin adds the lovely sweetness to Hummus. But the more important addition is Pomegranate Molasses, which I have been struggling to use up. The sweet and sour Pomegranate Molasses transforms the ordinary Hummus into an amazing dip.
