We all love hummus, but we want options beyond hummus now. Here are 44 other ideas for everyone who feels that way. A collection of 45 rustic, wholesome dips with a Mediterranean/Middle Eastern accent, made mostly from root vegetables, legumes and pulses, nuts, yogurt, omega 3-rich smoked fish, and other healthful and increasingly popular ingredients that are replacing typical mayo- and sour creambased standards. These dips are special enough to bring to a party and healthful enough to eat as a light dinner. 'Headnotes' will be streamlined for ease, consisting of just a few adjectives to describe the dip, ideas for what to serve as 'dippers,' and make-ahead and storage information (for all those times you make something the night before to bring for an event the next day). Approximately half of the dips have been photographed.
