- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 3 large jalapenos seeded & cut in chunks
- 1 cup fresh cilantro

Notes
- Preferably make one day ahead of time as it always tastes better the next day.
- Important Note: For a creamier hummus, remove the skin off the chickpeas. It might seem like a hassle, but it's a game-changer when you want super-smooth Hummus. Here's how to do it in simple steps:
- Take a chickpea between your thumb and index finger. Place it on a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.
