My mother-in-law played around with some Hummus recipes tonite and came up with our own..
Hummus
Blend together:
19 oz can drained and rinsed chickpeas (approx. 2 cups)
1/2 cup tahini
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
3 peeled garlic cloves
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon cumin
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/4 cup hot water
if you aren’t fond of hot stuff go lighter on the cumin… and the lemon could be a tad more maybe.
Great on crackers or veggie wrap!!! Or just about anything. Use instead of mayo.

ummm, hummus, huh? I dunno know about that one, darling! sounds, ummm, interesting! LOL!
Hey,
Have you tried adding either fresh cilantro or parsley to this recipe????
I use basically the same recipe except that I use fresh lemon and use the zest and add ground red pepper to add heat. I use half a “bunch” of cilantro most of the time.
I hated hummus until I made a similar recipe for one of my patients and she MADE me try it! lol Then I adapted her recipe to suit our tastes-I can’t just follow a recipe! lol
Be Blessed!
