Easy Hummus

August 14, 2015August 14, 2015

Easy Hummus

One of my staple recipes. It’s quick, easy, and delicious!

1 can garbanzos (drain and save the juice)

1-3 cloves garlic (roasted is best)

2-3 heaping tablespoons of tahini (I like a lot)

juice of one lemon

salt to taste

Add 1/4 cup black beans to make black bean hummus

Blend in the food processor. Add garbazo liquid as needed. Eat with carrots, crackers, or pita.
