Homemade hummus

This is my recipe for hummus. Hummus is better than any dip for your vegetables, and any spread you would spread on your bread. It's tasty and creamy, and I hope you will love it as much as i do!










For 1 portion, you will need:

1 14-15 oz can (about 420 grams) of chickpeas, drained and rinsed under cold water.
1 lemon. You will need the juice. (if you use the whole lemon, it will be very lemony).
1-2 cloves of garlic. Use 2 if you like much garlic.
Some water to thin it out. I made my hummus not as thick as normal, because i like to use mine as a dressing or a thin spread on my bread.
About 1/2 a teaspoon of paprika (optional).
A pinch of hot pepper flakes
Pepper (to taste)

- Place your chickpeas in a blender or a food processor, with the desired amount of garlic and lemon, and your seasonings. Pulse or blend until smooth.
- Add your desired amout of water and pulse or blend until combined.

Store in a tight container in the fridge, and enjoy it with a dip to your veggies, or as a spread on bread!
