Healthy Hummus Recipe
Chickpeas are also known as garbanzo beans. However you prefer to call them, they are extremely healthy for you. They have been grown in the Middle East for a long time and are now consumed all over the world, with hummus being probably the most well-known use of chickpeas. Now that you see how simple it can be to make your own hummus at home, you can save some money and stop buying them from your local grocery store. You can even vary the flavor profile from time to time by adding some cayenne pepper this time or adding some paprika the next time. The possibilities are endless. Enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Place all ingredients into a food processor and blend until smooth. If needed, thin out with a bit of water or the liquid from the can of chickpeas. Add 1 tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is achieved.
  2. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and drizzle with fresh olive oil before serving.
Recipe Notes

Your hummus will be thick and creamy at this point. If you like a thinner consistency just add more of the liquid from the can of chickpeas or water until the desired thickness. Avoid making it too runny though.

If you are a garlic lover like me, feel free to adjust the amount and add more.

Store the homemade hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
