Hummus is basically a puree of chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and garlic. These ingredients can be adjusted to taste and other ingredients can be added - cumin, curry, chili, oregano, spinach, feta, roasted red pepper, jalapeno - the sky's the limit! It's as simple as blending all the ingredients together and then serving with pita bread, crudites, making a sandwich, or whatever appeals to you.
Making your own hummus only takes a few minutes, but you get a delicious, healthy product and you aren't adding more plastic to landfill.

Soaking my garbanzo beans at this very moment for this week's batch.
As soon as I finish off my canned beans, I'm going to start using dried.
I had never made it until last Sunday. My son wanted to take some to a Super Bowl party. He found a recipe online and bought the ingredients. I helped him make it. It was quite yummy!
I made last week's batch with adzukis and there was a definate difference, which I really liked a lot. Better? No, just different, like I said, to mix it up a bit since I'm making a batch-a-week. Next time I need to add a bit more lemon than normal (it just seemed to call for a bit more), but I used the exact same recipe as the garbanzo batch.
