Hummus Topped with Roasted and Toasted

2010
05.15

An easy peasy hummus recipe. Nuff said.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups canned garbanzo beans, drained (of course dumbass)
  • 1/3 cup tahini paste (W00t whole foods!)
  • 1/4 cup lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, halved
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tbsp diced roasted red bell peppers
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1-2 tbsp toasted pine nuts
  • 1 teaspoon fresh parsley, plucked fresh from your garden, then minced

Directions

  1. Place the garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, salt and garlic in a blender or food processor. Pulse until mostly broken up. Scrape with a rubber spatla, pulse a few times. I like my hummus with some texture left so the idea is to blend as will as possible without over doing it. Transfer mixture to a serving bowl. Despite the picture, shallow is good.
  2. Drizzle olive oil over the garbanzo bean mixture. Add diced roasted bell peppers. Sprinkle with paprika, toasted pine nuts and parsley.

    Looks good to me. And looks very easy as well. I’m always on the go so one of my problems is really making something nutritious like this in no time. Thanks for sharing! :-)
