Hummus



Hummus

 Hummus is a middle eastern spread that is wonderful.  Traditionally, it uses Tahini, is a toasted sesame paste.  I did not have any Tahini on the night that I made this so I substituted almond butter and added sesame oil.  I can assure you that it turned out as good as any Hummus that I have had in a restaurant.

2 cans of Garbanzo beans, drained (chickpeas)
the juice of 3 lemons, about 8 tablespoons
1/3 cup of Almond Butter
1 teaspoon salt
2 Tablespoons of Olive Oil
1 Tablespoon of Sesame Oil
4 cloves of Garlic, chopped

Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Serve with pitas, pita chips, thin crackers or fresh vegetables and Enjoy!
