Hummus

2 c. cooked chickpeas (or 1 can)
3 garlic cloves, crushed (or 1 T. minced)
1/4 c. tahini*
1 T. lemon juice
1/2 tsp. salt
1-2 T. cumin
1/4+ c. water

Blend all ingredients in food processor until you get a smooth, spreadable consistency. Add more water as needed.  Serve with chips, crackers, or as a wrap on tortillas.

Hummus and chips is one of my kids favorite lunches. Shhhh! I only use the word "chickpeas" never "garbonzo beans."

*You may use canned tahini, or make it fresh using 1/4 c. oil and 1 c. sesame seeds. Put in a blender and blend until smooth.
