Smooth the hummus in the container and drizzle a layer of olive oil on the top of it. I tried this and it worked great! I thawed the hummus and just stirred in the oil on top. Now if you're avoiding using oil, I apologize as I don't have an answer for that one. The only thing with hummus is it gets pretty grainy after being frozen without the oil. I hope this is helpful. @Dana,

It sounds amazing! I've never even thought to add yoghurt to hummus! I love Larousse Gastronomique as well! I'm looking forward to making this, thanks Amy!

I don't see why it wouldn't work but I could be wrong. If you freeze it, I'd love to know the result. @Dana, I haven’t – I have cooked a pound of garbanzo beans then frozen them and used them to make hummus.

I just found your blog today - so excited! My husband went GF last spring and ever since then I've had to try to find all new recipes to cook for him! I am excited to have found your blog as my main goal is to find healthy recipes, and I have found that if the recipe is focused on being GF, it's not so focused on being healthy. So I am glad to have found a place where the focus is on both! :) One question for you - have you ever tried freezing this recipe? I am looking to find a great hummus recipe that I could make in a huge batch and freeze a bunch. I simply don't have the time to make it every week! Thanks so much! Hi Amy!
