CHICKPEAS HUMMUS

Try it on pita chips, toasted bread or with your favorite vegetables! Great to be taken at a party as it’s literally ready in minutes, it’s cheap to make and it’s so much better than the store bought one! 

INGREDIENTS

-1 can of garbanzo beans

-2tbsp garbanzo water from the can 

-3 tbsp tahini (I like the one sold in the squeezable bottle)

-1 clove of garlic, minced 

-3tbsp EV Olive oil

-juice of half lemon

-toppings of choice (spices, seeds….)

-salt to taste

PROCESS

-drain the chickpeas form their water, but save 2tbsp of it

-put chickpeas and their water in a food processor with garlic and tahini and process at high speed until smooth

-add olive oil and lemon juice

-add salt to taste

-process until smooth and creamy. You can adjust the consistency adding chickpeas water. 

Transfer your hummus in an airtight container

-top it with a drizzle of EV olive oil and your topping of choice (I like paprika and sesame seeds).

-refrigerate until ready to enjoy! 

Get creative flavoring your hummus with roasted peppers, olives, roasted eggplant or sun-dried tomatoes. Always adjust the consistency and add your extra ingredients in small quantities to balance the flavors. Have fun!
