Free Healthy Recipe - Hummus 2

Dairy free, Low GI, Low sugar, Wheat Free

One of the most versatile recipes to have up your sleeve. Use it in place of mashed potatoes, as an alternative to butter on sandwiches, in place of pasta sauce on some pizzas, or simply as a dip. It's just as easy to buy as it is to make but making your own ensures the quality of ingredients and is much more economical.

Ingredients

1 can chickpeas

2 cloves garlic, crushed

¼ cup tahini

1 lemon juiced

1 tsp chilli oil

¼ cup olive oil

cracked black pepper to season

Method

Drain the chickpeas, reserving 3 tablespoons of water from the can. Put the chickpeas and water in the food processor and process until smooth. Add the garlic, tahini and lemon juice and continue to process. With the processor running, add the chilli oil and then slowly pour in the olive oil. Continue to process until the hummus has lightened in colour and turned really creamy in colour and texture. Season to taste.

Makes approx 1.5 cups.
