Hummus
My Favorite Hummus with home made Pita Chips
Hummus is naturally without dairy, but it's such a great alternative appetizer to the usual appetizer fare of cheese and ranch dips. The next time it's your turn to bring the appetizer to a get together, bring the hummus! 1 15-16oz can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), rinsed and drained 1/4 C Tahini (sesame seed paste) 3 Tbs water 2 Tbs lemon juice 1 Tbs olive oil 1 clove garlic, crushed 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp ground cumin 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper 1 Tbs chopped parsley In a food processor combine garbanzo beans, tahini, water, lemon juice, oil, garlic, salt, cumin and cayenne pepper.mmm Edamame "Hummus" and spiced PIta chips
HummusThis is soo delicious! I make it and prepare them in individual containers to bring to work. I like to make big batches of my pita chips in advance also and then put them in portion sized baggies so im all set to go in the morning.
Hummus & Pita chips
This is the basic recipe, you can change it by adding roasted peppers or sun dried tomatoes.
INGREDIENTS:
4 garlic cloves, mashed
2 15-oz cans of garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained and rinsed
2/3 cup of tahini (roasted, not raw)
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup olive oil
salt to taste
- If you want to cook your chickpeas, soak them overnight and then cook in water with a dash of oil to soften them, for about 2 hours, don't add salt until they are cooked because that will make them tough.
Put all ingredients minus salt in food processor.
Really Good Hummus
I have been obsessed with making hummus lately. Unfortunately, my first attempt was miserable as I couldn't find tahini (sesame paste) anywhere. I found this recipe on foodtv.com (it's Alton's) and it's wonderful.Falafel with all the trimmins
Yayita just posted about gyros/kebaps here, and it reminded me of the time I tried to make a Middle Eastern feast. A few years ago, my sister was coming home for a visit from Paris on an afternoon when my mother had to work late. My mother asked me to pick my sister up from the airport and to make sure she was fed.Garlic hummus dip
