I mentioned in an earlier post that hummus is one of my favourite snacks. It’s just one of those things that makes eating raw veggies that much more enjoyable. And it’s so ridiculously easy to make, it’s almost a sin to buy store-bought.

Here’s a quick and easy recipe for your snacking pleasure.

Recipe: Simple Hummus

Ingredients

1 can of organic chickpeas (drained and rinsed)

1-2 cloves of garlic crushed

½ cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice

¼ cup of Tahini (include some of the oil that rises to the top)

1 tbsp of olive oil

½ tsp sea salt (I’m currently using Himalayan)

½ tsp of cumin

Optional: small piece of diced jalapeño pepper (if you’re not afraid of a little fire!)

Instructions

Throw all ingredients in a food processor or Vita-Mix (or other strong blender) and blend until you’ve reached a somewhat smooth and creamy consistency.

Garnish with parsley or cilantro.

Ah, sweet simplicity.

Hope your Sunday was as relaxing as mine:)
