A Crowd Pleasing Party Appetizer 🙏

When planning a holiday menu, finding food that accommodates guests who are vegan, vegetarian, or gluten-free can be a challenge.

This Hummus Wreath solves that problem beautifully, since it’s just a great dip that happens to be naturally diet-friendly!

  • Vegan & Vegetarian: Most standard hummus is naturally vegan (made from chickpeas, tahini, lemon, and oil). Just quickly check the ingredients to ensure your chosen brand doesn’t contain cheese or dairy. ✅
  • Gluten-Free: Hummus itself is gluten-free. For dippers, serve with vegetable sticks (carrots, cucumber, celery) or certified gluten-free crackers.
  • Loved By All: Because hummus is a popular, mainstream food, no one will feel singled out. It’s a fun, cute dish that is delicious for every single person at the party! 😋

Wreath Design Tips & Flavor Swaps 🌿

You can easily customize the look and flavor of your wreath to suit your personal preference or the color scheme of your party.

Designing Your Wreath

  • The Hummus Base: For a perfect circular wreath, use a silicone spatula to gently scoop and spread the hummus into a ring shape on a large white plate.
  • Herb Choice: The photos show parsley, which is a safe, bright green choice. However, if you love it, cilantro also offers a green color and has a bold flavor! Just use the herb you know your family enjoys most.
  • Ornament Swaps: Instead of red grape tomatoes, you can use sliced red bell peppers, pomegranate seeds (for a beautiful pop of color), or small slices of green olives for a different flavor profile.

Serving Suggestions

To keep the wreath looking fresh, arrange the dipping foods around the plate rather than pushing them into the wreath itself:

  • Vegetable Dippers: Baby carrots, cucumber slices, and sugar snap peas are always winners.
  • Breads & Chips: Offer pita chips, tortilla chips, and crusty bread slices.
