You are all going to think I'm weird...but I'm in love with hummus. I love it as a veggie dip, with pita bread, or in a veggie wrap. You can do so many things with it! I used to buy it...but if you have a food processor, it really is so much easier (and cheaper) to make it yourself.
Hummus
1 can chickpeas (or about 1 1/2 cup cooked beans, if you are making from scratch)
2 cloves garlic
1-2 T. tahini
1 t. cumin
juice from half a lemon
salt to taste
1 t. olive oil (or you can use water)
Blend in a food processor, scraping the sides until smooth. You don't want it to be too pasty or too runny, just a smooth consistency.
You can add roasted red peppers or other vegetables and I'm sure it would taste delicious.
Okay, okay, you caught me. This picture isn't mine, and I didn't make that hummus. But hopefully from the picture, you can see the right consistency. There is a pool of olive oil in the middle (optional, of course), so this isn't necessarily how it'll turn out. But every time I look at it, I just start drooling. Doesn't it look amazing?
