The other day I went into our local health food store and they had a free sample of this delicious hummus. I didn't buy any because I believe that store-bought hummus (while delicious) is wayyyy overpriced. I looked at the ingredients and it sounded pretty simple. So I made it last night and it was amazing. Here's the recipe!
Ingredients
- 1 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
- 4 cloves pressed or diced garlic (more or less depending on your taste)
- 1/4 cup roasted red peppers
- juice from one lemon
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon tahini
- salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Put all ingredients into food processor or blender and blend until smooth.
- Transfer to serving bowl and garnish with a few chopped roasted red peppers.
Pretty easy, huh? Pair a serving of it (1/8 of the entire recipe) with 2 stalks of celery and you have a VERY filling and energizing 100 calorie snack!
