Hummus

We have successfully made some delicious hummus!  I have to share it with you all because it's too good not to pass up.  Also, this only cost us around $3.00 to make!

Here is what you will need to make it:
   - 1 can of garbanzo beans
   - 2 tbsp of tahini (we made tahini with sesame seeds and a little olive oil)
   - 4 tsp of lemon juice
   - 2 or 3 medium-sized cloves of garlic finely minced (2 or 3 depending on how garlicey you like it)
   - 3/4 tsp ground cumin
   - 1 tsp parsley
   - salt to taste

Put all of the ingredients in a food processor.  SAVE THE GARBANZO BEAN WATER.  (you'll need it for the texture later).


Blend everything in a food processor until everything is smooth.  Add little amounts of the garbanzo bean water for texture.  You'll want it smooth, but not runny.


That's it!  You're done!  We love to eat it with pita chips. I hope you enjoy it because we love to eat it and it's really inexpensive and easy to make!
