Make your own healthy homemade hummus that's a healthier version of store bought. Serve it with topping of choice with dippers like celery, carrots, lavash or pita bread.
2-4 T. cold water, more if needed
1/3 c. Tahini
3/4 t. fine sea salt
2-3 T. freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 T. extra virgin olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
15 oz. can chickpeas, drained and rinsed in warm water
toppings of choice, optional (olive tapenade, chimichurri sauce, a drizzle of olive oil and pine nuts)
In a food processor, process water, Tahini, salt, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic; puree until smooth. Add chickpeas; process until smooth, about 4 minutes. If it's too thick, add a little more water until it's at desired consistency.
