Ingredients Needed

• Garlic cloves - Chopped fresh garlic can take some time to chop so I often always use the freshly minced garlic that comes already made in a jar. 
• Canned chickpeas, drained, liquid reserved - Chickpeas, also known as garbanzo beans, are a type of legume that are high in protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients
• Kosher salt
• Tahini (sesame paste) - is a paste made from ground sesame seeds and is a popular ingredient in many Middle Eastern and Mediterranean dishes. It has a nutty flavor and a creamy texture and is often used as a condiment, dip or sauce.
• Freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 lemons) - This adds a nice burst of citrus flavor to the marinade to help enhance the choice of protein. Use freshly squeezed over bottled juice. 
• 2 tablespoons water or liquid from the chickpeas
• Hot dashes hot sauce
• See the recipe card below for a full list of ingredients and measurements.

How to Make Hummus

Turn on the food processor fitted with the steel blade and drop the garlic down the feed tube; process until it's minced.

Add the rest of the ingredients to the food processor and process until the hummus is coarsely pureed. Taste, for seasoning, and serve chilled or at room temperature.
