Hummus

3 cans garbanzo beans drained

3-4 tbl tahini

1 lemon or lime

1/3 cup olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste

 

1.       Saute the chopped garlic in oil over a low flame

2.       Juice the lime or lemon

3.       Place all the ingredients in a food processor and blend well.  The hummus will be thick and have a dry consistency

4.       Add water in small amounts until desired consistency is achieved

5.       Put the hummus in a bowl

6.       Just before eating make an indent in the center of the hummus and por a small amount of olive oil into the indent.

Hummus improves flavor if it sits overnight in the refrigerator.
