Love hummus! It’s a great go-to for quick packed lunches– in a wrap/pita sandwich with turkey, lettuce, and tomatoes, or as a dip for fresh veggies like carrots, cucumber, or celery. Here’s how you can make it yourself!
Ingredients
- 4 garlic cloves
- 2 cups canned chickpeas, drained, liquid reserved
- 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1/3 cup tahini (sesame paste)
- 6 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons)
- 2 tablespoons water or liquid from the chickpeas
- optional: dash of hot sauce or Sriracha!
Directions
- Turn on the food processor fitted with the steel blade and drop the garlic down the feed tube; process until it’s minced. Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and process until the hummus is coarsely pureed. Taste, for seasoning, and serve chilled or at room temperature.
