Tips for Serving Hummus

Freshly chopped veggies are typically served for roasted hummus. You can use sliced cucumbers, carrots, or bell peppers.

For something, more carb-heavy try pretzels, Crackers, pita bread, naan, or bread.

What Ingredients do I need for Roasted Garlic Hummus?  

In this section, you can find substitutes or suggestions for certain check here

Canned Chick Peas   - AKA garbanzo beans are traditionally used in hummus. 

Tahini  - If you’re looking to make hummus without tahini leave it out! I’ve seen many recipes online that don’t even use it. 

Olive Oil   - use a good extra virigin olive oil - I really like the Simply Nature brand at Aldi 

Water  - use warm, will help with blending better 

Head of Garlic - roasted in the oven 

Lemon Juice - always use from fresh lemons or lemon juice is in a bottle is fine. 

Salt - kosher  

How to make Roasted Garlic Hummus 

Preheat oven to 375°F Cut off the very top of the garlic clove (about ¼") so that the tops of most of the cloves are exposed slightly. Coat with a little olive oil and wrap securely in tin foil. Roast garlic in oven for 1 hour. Remove and allow to cool.

Using your fingers, squeeze the soft, roasted garlic out of each clove into food processor. Rinse and drain cooked or canned chickpeas. Add them, and all other ingredients, to the food processor and blend until completely smooth.

Scrape ingredients off sides of food processor to make sure it blends evenly. If you find that the hummus is too thick, you can add additional olive oil at this time. Add it very slowly, allowing the mixture to combine fully before adding more liquid.

Serve at room temperature with crudites, warm pita or crackers.

Optional: Sprinkle with chopped parsley or paprika before serving.
