Author: Christina - Juggling Real Food and Real Life
Ingredients
1 15 0Z can of garbanzo beans or chick peas
⅓ cup liquid from can or water
5 tablespoons of lemon juice
1½ tablespoons tahini (tahini can be found in your regular grocery store. It comes in a tall jar. It is ground sesame seeds so it similar in consistency to natural peanut butter).
2 cloves of garlic crushed (adjust to taste)
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Drain beans and set aside liquid to use later. (if you drain into the sink and don't save the liquid as I did the first time, simply substitute water).
Combine beans, lemon juice, tahini, garlic, salt and olive oil in a food processor. (a blender can also be used).
Blend until smooth
Add additional liquid and mix for about a minute or so.
For serving......put hummus in pretty dish and using a spoon put a well into the middle. Pour an additional tablespoon of olive oil into the well. Garnish with fresh herbs.
