Blender Hummus without Tahini

This Blender Hummus without Tahini combines canned chickpeas with lemon juice, olive oil, paprika, and garlic salt for a smooth, creamy dip. The absence of tahini simplifies the flavor and texture while retaining the essence of hummus. Blending the ingredients until smooth produces a spreadable consistency that thickens after refrigeration. The paprika adds a mild smoky note, and the garlic salt complements the chickpeas, making this hummus ready to serve with vegetables or crackers.
