Instructions
- Place chickpeas in a bowl of water and rub them together to peel the skin (optional step, but helps create a creamy texture).
- Drain the garbanzo beans and transfer them to a food processor. Blend them alone until they become powder-like, scraping down the sides as needed.
- While the food processor is running, add the ice cubes, lemon juice, tahini, garlic clove and salt, and blend for about 5 minutes until smooth.
- Finally, add the avocados and cilantro and blend until smooth and creamy. Taste and adjust as needed by adding more lemon juice or salt.
- Spoon the hummus onto a plate or bowl, and spread the hummus with the back of a spoon. Garnish with

Notes
- Storage: Store any leftovers in an airtight container. They will last about 2-3 days in the fridge. Make sure to place plastic directly on top of the dip touching it to help slow down the browning.
- Video: Please note the video uses 2 tablespoons warm water, but the recipe card uses a couple ice cubes. Either option works, but I prefer the ice cubes.
