Middle Eastern  Hummus Recipe

Healthy and Simple Middle Eastern Hummus Recipe.
I grew up having hummus with many of the dishes that my Mom made. Hummus is a middle eastern dip made with chickpeas and sesame seeds (called tahini).

Hummus is a simple dish that packs a punch with nutrition and taste. It's a great source of fiber, high in protein, can help lower cholesterol, may reduce risk of cancer, has a good amount of calcium, and spreads easily on vegetables for a light and delicious snack!

Ingredients:
  • 2 cups chickpeas (if from cans, then rinsed and drained)
  • 1/4 cup Tahini sauce
  • 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 8 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 cloves of garlic, crushed
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • Water
  • Dash of paprika

Directions:
  • Set aside few whole chickpeas for garnishing
  • In food processor combine warm chickpeas, tahini, lemon, garlic, salt, pepper, cumin, and yogurt
  • Blend until consistency is smooth
  • Add a little bit of water to improve blending and make the consistency creamier
  • Drizzle with olive oil, paprika, and few whole chickpeas
  • Enjoy! 

*** Serving size is 4 tablespoons ***
