Hummus recipe

heartofcurls

Looking for a really good recipe, because I love this stuff.

1 16 oz can of chickpeas or garbanzo beans
3-5 tablespoons lemon juice (depending on taste) 1 1/2 tablespoons tahini
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil

This is what my husband and I have been using for awhile. Some people say you use a 1/4 cup of the liquid from the canned beans but we never do we usually just use water and throw it all into a blender. You can add things like peppers, pine nuts, etc. to change it up. Tahini can be hard to find FYI

Exactly like my recipe only I add paprika to give it a little kick. You can also add some fresh coriander if you want something different.

PS: don't add the liquid from the canned beans, it is all starch and will give you (and any guests) serious gas.
