Instructions
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until al dente according to package directions. Reserve 1 cup of pasta cooking water, then drain the pasta and return to the pot to stay warm.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions and cook for 5-7 minutes or until fragrant and they soften. Add the garlic, and cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Add the spinach and cook for 1 minute, or until is slightly wilts.
- Add the hummus, about ½ cup of the pasta cooking water, the lemon juice and lemon zest, and stir until a creamy sauce forms. Add more pasta water to thin the sauce a little at time, as desired.
- Transfer the cooked pasta to the skillet, turn off the heat and toss everything together. Top with basil and crushed red pepper.
- Serve immediately with parmesan cheese or basil, if desired.

Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 3-4 days in the fridge.
- Make Ahead Tips: You can make the pasta sauce up to a day in advance and then just add it to cooked pasta when ready.
- Sourcing: Feel free to use any hummus you'd like. You can find it in the fresh deli section of most grocery stores. You can also use a homemade version if you'd like!
- Substitutes: For best results, follow the recipe as is. However, if you prefer to skip the spinach or use different greens like kale, that works as well!
