I love Hummus!

The title of this post says it all... I really really really love hummus! I eat it just about every day and so does my baby boy, Tilman. I don't really like the store-bought stuff though, too much garlic for me and I don't like all the additives. PLUS, it's actually cheaper to make at home once you buy the staples (tahini & jarred organic garlic - both last a LONG time). One of my favorite combos is jalepeno cilantro hummus...



We just finished off a batch and now we are on to pumpkin hummus!! Who would've thought pumpkin could be whipped into hummus?? It's surprisingly AMAZING!



HERE'S A BASIC HUMMUS RECIPE
What you need:
1 can organic garbanzo beans, drained
1/4C water
1TBSP tahini
1TBSP crushed garlic (I use organic from a jar)
2TBSP cumin
1tsp sea salt

How to:
Blend it all together!

OPTIONAL FLAVORS:
Jalepeno Cilantro: 2TBSP tamed jalepenos from a can & 1/4C chopped cilantro

Pumpkin: add in 1/2C canned pumpkin & 2tsp chili powder

Red Pepper: 1/2 red bell pepper, roasted or grilled
