Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
Things You'll Need:
- 1 can (15 oz) garbanzo beans or chick peas
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 4 teaspoons lemon juice
- dash of salt
-
Step 1
Drain the beans and rinse them well. Put them in a blender or food processor with all the other ingredients.
-
Step 2
Mix until smooth. If the hummus is too thick you can add a bit more olive oil or you can just add some water.
-
Step 3
When the mixture is well blended store in a covered container in the fridge until you are ready to use it!
-
Step 4
You can use fresh garlic or you can use garlic from a jar. If you use garlic from a jar you may want to add a bit more than 2 teaspoons because it tends to be not as flavorful as fresh.
-
Step 5
One batch will not last long! You may want to double up on this one. And since making your own hummus is so cheap you can afford to double up!
