Do you enjoy hummus with crackers or carrot sticks? How about in a sandwich but hate the price tag on store bought hummus? This quick, non-recipe, for homemade hummus is a my go to when I want to change up our typical lunch routine.

  cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
 warm water
 lemon juice (optional)
 2 Roasted red peppers (optional)

1

Drain chick peas.

Add tahini, garlic, salt and EVOO. I love this little tube to peel garlic. Just pop the clove in it and use the palm of your hand to roll it on your board back and forth a couple of times.

Blend until smooth, adding warm water until your desired thickness is reached. Stare down the blender like my little guy if you really want to blend well.

  1. Awesome recipe! I’ve never made hummus before but we have always talked about how easy it would be. Thanks for the inspiration!

  2. Looks great! I’ll try it without the oil and salt and see how it goes for Jeff. Maybe I’ll add some flax seed soaked in water….Thank you for sharing.
