Hummus
2 - 15 oz. cans of garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and rinsed
4 garlic cloves, minced
2/3 cup of roasted tahini (not raw)
juice of one fresh lemon
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 teaspoon salt
Combine all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth. Add additional water if it is too thick (depending on what size your lemon is). Place in refrigerator for a few hours before serving. Add more garlic for a stronger flavor. Serve with fresh vegetables, pita chips, or reduced fat crackers.
Makes about 3 cups.
And yet I have started another crocheted blanket, using the same colors as the last. It is an easier pattern and will have a different edge when it's finished.
