Ingredients
- 15 ounce chickpeas Can, drained and rinsed
- ¼ cup tahini
- lemon juice more if desired, juice of 1 lemon
- 1 clove garlic chopped
- ½ cup red bell pepper jarred or fresh, roasted
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Garnishes pine nuts, herbs, olive oil, chopped bell peppers
Instructions
- Place all ingredients except garnishes in a food processor and blend until smooth. Taste and add more salt, pepper, or lemon juice if desired.
- Serve with veggies and whole wheat pita bread. It can be made up to 3 days in advance.
Notes
- Add jalapenos for a spicier kick, add some jalapenos to the mixture when you are blending it. I don't do this often because my kids definitely can't handle the heat. But it's a hit when you are making this for some adult guests that come over.
- Invest in a good food processor. For achieving the perfect creamy consistency, you're going to want to invest in a good food processor or blender.
- Avoid bottled lemon juice, use freshly squeezed lemon juice to lend your blend that freshness and zest.
- Add an avocado, great for guac lovers! Simply add fiber-filled avocado chunks with cilantro and a few dashes of cumin while the hummus is blending, and watch how the texture turns even smoother and richer.
