| TJs has a number of good ones. To make it myself -- I just put chick peas in a blender with some pepper, onions, olive oil, ginger, cilantro |

THE KITCHEN'S HUMMUS from: http://thekitchencafe.com/index.shtml
[Recipe Serves 1-2 cups] Dec 21, 2005 NOTES: This is a very easy recipe that’s great to have around. It has a pretty good shelf life; just keep it covered in the fridge. It goes wonderfully with grilled bread drizzled with excellent olive oil. INGREDIENTS: 1 15-ounce can good-quality chickpeas (garbanzos), drained and rinsed 2 cloves garlic 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/4 extra-virgin olive oil 1/2 cup tahini paste Salt and pepper, to taste INSTRUCTIONS: 1. Place all ingredients in a food processor and blend to a smooth paste.Taste and adjust seasoning. I alway add paprika adjust as: strong garlic, add lemon juice need to thin with olive oil |
This is very close to what I make, although I probably go heavier on the tahina. I also add hot pepper to it. |
| Wife and kid don't like the heat! Bums me out, I love a little heat in things. |
| I use a similar recipe too, but add parsley to it. Kids gobble it up. |
| I love the three-layer hummus from Trader Joes that has regular, red pepper and parsley hummus. Yum! |
