This is one of my favorite recipes – I could just eat it by the spoonful, and with the high fiber content of chickpeas, it is a very healthy snack……so no guilt involved.
I make up a batch every Sunday, so I have it on hand when I am in a rush, served with buckwheat crackers, or carrot sticks. Makes a great lunch if you don’t have much time.
Ingredients
1 can of chick peas (398ml) drained and rinsed
2 table spoons of tahini
1 teaspoon Salt
Cayenne pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
Handful of fresh parsley
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon water (optional – depending on how firm you want your hummus)
5 tablespoons of fresh lime juice (or lemon juice is just as good)
Method
1. Put all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth.
2. Adjust seasoning if needed.
3. Put in a glass container and store in the fridge – but if you are like me, it wont last long.
