Hummus

To kickoff our blog, we will start with a simple yet delicious recipe: homemade hummus!  Prepare to never buy that pre-made hummus from the grocery store ever again! All you need is a food processor and a few ingredients.

Ingredients:

• 1 can of chick peas
• 2 garlic cloves (garlic-lovers, feel free to add more!)
• 3 tablespoons of tahini 
• Salt & pepper
• Lemon juice (to taste)

Instructions:

1. In a food processor, add garlic and mince. If you love garlic, don't be afraid to add more than 2 cloves! We usually do!
2. Once minced, strain chick peas in a strainer and add to processor with tahini. Start processor. 
3. Add lemon juice, salt, and pepper to taste. *To keep hummus smooth, you can add some water to your mixture while processing. We love our hummus to be lemony, so we just add a lot of lemon juice and that usually keeps it smooth without adding any water. It's your preference!

For a special treat, toast some pita bread or chop up some of your favorite veggies to dip into the hummus! Enjoy :)
