Making hummus is great to do with kids. It is fast and easy to make and so deliciously rewarding. Chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon and olive oil in a food processor and you’re ready to rock. Getting the proportions right and the consistency perfect, might take a little finessing. Our chef Nick has got it down, and I’m happy to share the inside scoop with you.
This is how it’s done:
2 15oz cans chickpeas(garbanzo beans)
1/2 cup of tahini (sesame seed paste)
1/2 cup olive oil
2 cloves of crushed garlic
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons cumin
2 Tablespoons salt
water to thin
Blend all ingredients until smooth, and voila! Serve with hot pita, dip your carrots, add to your rice and enjoy!
Alleluia!! I will be able to make my own Humus…

I love Hommus and I love that it’s so easy to make at home
Now that I’ve seen this I think I’m going to go make some… Cravings!
Wonderful! Let us know how it turns out:)
I just whipped up a batch of this and added a tad more zing with about 1 1/2 t. onion powder and a little less salt. yum!!
That sounds like the perfect addition to this recipe, thank you for sharing, so glad you enjoyed it!
