Easy Hummus

Why buy hummus when you can just make it at home!

1 can chick peas (either with juice, or drain. If you drain you'll need to add water to the hummus)
1/3 cup Tahini (ground sesame seeds)
Juice of 1-2 lemons
2 TB Olive oil
Salt to taste

Just food process it up and you have hummus.
Our favorite add-ins (mix or match)

2 cloves garlic
2 TB parsley
2 TB Basil
2 ts paprika
Sun-dried tomatoes

Serve with pita, in sandwhiches, or as a healthy and delicious veggie dip

Yum! I would recommend rinsing the chick peas, because it gets rid of a lot of the salt. Plus, for canned pulses in general (beans, peas, lentils), rinsing them and using water instead of the liquid from the can will make them less gassy.
