Hummus

HUMMUS
Served on Apple Rings
Holli Barbera

Yield: 4 Cups

2- 15.5 oz cans chick peas, drained

1/2 C tahini, normally in the natural section

5 cloves garlic, crushed (I roast four of them so they are smoky and smooshy and then minced to death the fifth so it is crisp and crunchy)

1 t cumin

1 t paprika

1/2 C extra virgin olive oil

4 lemons, juiced

2 t salt

Place the chick peas, tahini, garlic, cumin and paprika in a food processor (I also add one sliver of a sun dried tomato- creative license ya know- hahaha!) and pulse to combine. Turn food processor on high and drizzle in olive oil, once incorporated add lemon juice. Process until smooth. Salt to taste and serve! I live to dip apples (rings or slices). YUMMY!
