There are as many recipes out there for hummus as there are days in the year, but this one was a personal fav before I ever even tasted it because it uses lots of yummy lemon flavor with a bit of heat from some hot sauce and only a tad of olive oil.
Got 5 minutes? Then you've got time to make this gem and eat it up with some tasty carrots or celery sliced peppers or pita bread! Let me know what you think & Cheerful Chewing!!!
This recipe is adapted from what is published in Easy Beans by Trish Ross.
4 garlic cloves
1 can chick peas
1/3 cup of FRESH lemon juice
2 Tbs olive oil
1 t ground cumin
2 Tbs warm water
7 dashes of hot pepper sauce
Dump all the ingredients in the food processor* & let 'er whirl until it's nice and creamy. I sliced a leftover lemon & placed in on top of each snack sized bowl to allow a little more lemon flavor to infuse into the delicious dip.
*If you don't have a food processor you can use a blender, but I don't reccomend it. I spent too many occasions fighting my blender to make hummus over the years and I feel pretty darn silly about it now that I see how easy it is with the processor.
I must admit I was licking the bowl after making this one.
