Ingredients

15 oz garbanzo beans (1 can) rinsed and drained
2 heaping tablespoons tahini paste
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 cloves garlic minced
1 tablespoon olive oil or canola oil, use a light flavored oil, light
salt
black pepper

dipping option-

vegetables
pita
bagel
Chips
anything else you want to dip

Instructions

Cup of Yum

Pour all ingredients into food processor. Pulse until desired consistency is reached. (I like mine thick with a little texture, so it didn't take me long to get there. If you want more of a smooth consistency, add in 1-2 more tablespoons oil and keep processing!)
Serve with vegetables, or pita. Store in refrigerator for up to 5 days in an airtight container.

Notes

The garlic flavor becomes stronger the longer the hummus sits. So, at first when you make this, you may not taste a strong flavor, however, the next day you will, so beware! Don't be like me and think there isn't enough and add in 2 extra garlic cloves! (Calorie information is for the hummus, not additional dipping items.)
