Hummus Recipe….ChowDown

Hummus is a healthy alternative to other dips because it provides you with protein and a number of essential vitamin and minerals. While it can be high in fat, it is mostly heart-healthy unsaturated fat. On top of all of that it is very easy to make. 


1 16 oz. can of chickpeas drained (save liquid for reserve)
1/2 cup of tahini
3 tablespoons of olive oil (can use more or less, as desired)
2 heaping tablespoons of minced garlic
Juice of 1 lemon
Salt & pepper to taste

Add all ingredients to a food processor and blend until smooth. 
Add liquid reserve, if needed, for a smoother consistency. 


Add-Ins (if desired) -
Roasted Red Peppers
Pine Nuts
Sundries Tomatoes
Chopped Spinach
