Black Bean Hummus, make your own at home!

25 Oct

Its easy! We know that hummus is made from ground chickpeas… so how hard can this be, right? I did not have tahini so this is a tahini free hummus. The only thing is that you need a food processor. Mine is about 40 years old, probably. It was my grandmas and she gave it to me, but it works like a charm! Cuisinart, baby!

* Tahini is roasted sesame seed paste. It is actually really good.

Ingredients:

1 can black beans

1 can garbanzo beans

2 garlic cloves (you can do one if you do not love garlic)

1 jalapeño pepper (mine was spicy- so do a half or none if you do not like “heat”)

half  lemon

1/4 cup water

2 tablespoon EVOO

cumin, salt, pepper to taste (I didn’t measure I  just kinda added it in)

Directions:

Add all ingredients to food processor, blend until smooth. I made sure to mince the garlic and Jalapaneo pepper before I put in blender.  If the final product looks too thick add more water and blend again. Enjoy with carrot sticks, or pita chips.

Let me know if you try, and how it comes out!
