Hummus






A friend was tellling me how easy it is to make your own hummus in a food processor or even in a blender.  So I tried it in my food processor the other day. It is really easy to do.

1 large can of chick peas
1/4 c liquid from the can
3-5 tbs lemon juice (juice of half a lemon)
1 1/2 tbs tahini (a sesame seed paste)
2 cloves of garlic crushed
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbs olive oil

blend all ingredients together with a few pulses of the food processor. It is delicious with slices of sweet peppers or perhaps with pita bread or crackers.

  5. I figure it would be easy to add other stuff to it to change the flavor. I have never made it.

  16. It has been so long since I’ve made hummus. I’m having a bumper crop of peppers, so maybe I should try this.
