The Yums: Tongue Happy Hummus.

In case any of you are interested in testing out the hummus recipe (& really giving your tongue a treat), You'll need:

1 16 oz. can of garbanzo beans (or 16oz. of home cooked grabanzos)

1/4 cup liquid from the can (or garbanzo water from home cooking)

1-1/2 TBSP tahini

the juice of a whole lemon (I use meyer)

3 large cloves crushed garlic

1/2 tsp sea salt

2 TBSP olive oil

1/8 tsp cayenne pepper

Mix well in a food processor or VitaMix. Choose your own consistency. I like mine a tad lumpy. It will last about 3 days in the refrigerator and a few weeks if you freeze it. Between the 3 of us, I have no doubt that this batch will be gone in 3 days. Enjoy it on bread, tortillas, pita, or rice (tasty!).
