A rich flavorful hummus is comfort food to me. Not the kind you buy in a grocery store, however. There is a local mediteranean shop that sells hummus that I love, and then there is the homemade kind. Really, making hummus at home is so easy, I have no idea why I don’t do it more often! Enjoy on salads, with crackers, with veggies, in a wrap, on a sandwich, etc. This is a basic recipe that can be altered easily with a change in seasonings. I use a little (non-dairy) milk to give creaminess without having to add additional oils. Why add extra oiliness when you don’t need it? The flavor remains every bit as rich and decadent 🙂
You need:
1 large lemon, juice and pulp
1 can garbanzos
2 small garlic cloves
1 tbs tahini
1 tbs olive oil
2 tbs oat milk (milk of choice)
dash crushed red pepper
pinch sea salt
dash oregano
dash parsley
Blend all ingredients on high until smooth and creamy!
