Hummus

(our favorite)

Ingredients

  • 1 15 ounce can garbanzo beans (reserve juice)
  • 1 ¼ TBS tahini (can be bought in most grocery stores… looks like peanut butter)
  • ¼ c. lemon juice
  • 1 large garlic clove
  • ½ tsp. salt

Directions

  1. Heat beans over medium heat until they come to a boil. Reserve juice.
  2. Put beans and next 4 ingredients in a food processor or blender. Slowly add juice from beans (not all the juice). Blend until creamy and very smooth.
  3. Place in a bowl… serve with pita bread, French bread, or any bread!!!
