Easy and quick Hummus takes less than 10 minutes to make. It's creamy, savory and has a slightly tangy flavor, which makes it a delicious and healthy appetizer served perfectly with pita bread, chips, and vegetables.

Instructions
- Add the chickpeas, garlic, tahini, salt, ground cumin, half of the paprika, and fresh lemon juice to a blender (or food processor). Blend for 2 minutes, stopping to scrape down the sides of the blender as needed. Add the ice cubes and blend for an additional 1 minute, or until smooth.
- Spoon the hummus into a serving dish. Sprinkle the remaining paprika and freshly chopped green onion (or parsley) on top. Drizzle with olive oil and serve immediately.
Notes
- Recipe Source: Gusscooks
- If using dried chickpeas, cook them until they are very tender.
- Adding ice cubes during blending helps to cool down the mixture and results in a smoother texture.
- If the hummus is too thick, you can adjust the consistency by adding a bit of water or extra lemon juice until it reaches your desired thickness.
