Hummus

Jason and I have become addicted to hummus. I make this at least once a week. This is the base recipe but you can add other ingredients to make different flavors

Ingredients:
  • 2 - 15 oz. cans garbanzo beans (chickpeas) one can drained
  • 3 cloves of garlic - smashed
  • 1/4 cup sesame seeds
  • 3 tablespoons tahini* (can be found at whole foods by the peanut butter)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lemon - juiced
  • 2 limes - juiced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon white pepper (or black)
  • salt to taste

Add all ingredients into the blender. Blend on highest power until all mixed.

*Tahini is ground sesame seed butter.
