Basic Hummus

No need to ever buy hummus again! Keep canned garbanzo beans on hand and a few other ingredients and mix up a great appetizer. It is not only good for you, but very easy to make. Lemon Infused Olive Oil is being used and can be purchased on-line at Spicewood Food Company.

Ingredients

1 – 15 oz. can of garbanzo beans drained reserving liquid
1 tablespoon of lemon infused oil
½ teaspoon of kosher salt, add a bit more for desired
3 sprigs of parsley plus extra for garnishing

Technique

In a blender combine all ingredients. Add ½ of the liquid from garbanzo beans to help bring it to a nice puree. Once a nice consistency, remove and place into a serving dish and garnish with additional parsley, if desired. Serve it with toasted baguette slices, baked pita chips or as a side for grilled chicken, shish kebabs, or grilled vegetables
