The easy and quick Christmas canapes are usually very convenient to avoid spending hours in the kitchen and be able to enjoy quality time with the family when organizing a dinner or meal. After all, that is the whole point of the festive season! Iratxe sent us a surprising and very tasty recipe idea. Plus, it is super easy! In addition, she suggests to BUY pre-made hummus to make it even easier.

- Garlic - one clove
- Cumin - to taste
- Salt - to taste
- Paprika - (optional
Instructions
- Prepare the hummus by mixing the chickpeas, the tahini, the oil, the lemon juice, the garlic, the cumin and the salt. * If you make too much hummus, you can sprinkle some paprika on top and use it as a dip with some raw vegetables.
- Take a few tablespoons of hummus and mix it with some marinade (“escabeche”) from the mussels. You now have two types of hummus: marinated ("escabeche") and natural.
- Spread the hummus on the nachos, alternating marinated and natural hummus.
- Place a mussel on each nacho.
