Ingredients

1 15 ounce can no salt added garbanzo beans (chickpeas)

2 cloves garlic OR 2 teaspoons garlic powder

1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice (about 1 lemon)

1 teaspoon ground cumin

2 tablespoons olive oil OR vegetable oil

1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper

1/2 cup plain low-fat yogurt

2 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Before you begin, wash your hands, surfaces, utensils, and tops of cans.
  2. Use a colander to drain garbanzo beans. Discard liquid.
  3. In the bowl of a blender or food processor, combine garbanzo beans, garlic, lemon juice, cumin, oil, and pepper. Blend on low speed until the beans are mashed and consistency is smooth.
  4. Stir in 1/2 cup yogurt OR 2 tablespoons water with a spoon.
  5. For best results, refrigerate for several hours or overnight so the flavors can blend.

 

Tips

  • For a shorter blending time, mash beans with a fork, chop garlic finely, and then stir ingredients thoroughly before adding to the blender.
  • Store the hummus in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Use within 2-3 days.
  • Add 1/3 cup chopped red pepper for a different flavor.
