Hummus


Hummus is a very nutritious and yummy dip. It can be served with crackers or veggies as a dip, or even spread on bread. I don't recall where I got this recipe from, but it's very good. Actually, it's addictive.


Hummus


1 can chick peas

1/3 cup oil

3 tbsps. lemon juice (Fresh makes all the difference)

2 garlic cloves, sliced

2 tbsp. tahini (mid eastern sesame paste)

1/2 tsp. salt

chopped parsley, fresh to taste about 1/4 cup

1/2 diced chopped onion. (optional)

1 tsp. dried dill (optional)

a handfull of green olives (optional)


drain chickpeas

add all ingredients to food processor. Process until smooth. If too thick, a little water can be added to desired thickness.
