Homemade Hummus

I don't know about you, but me and Robbie eat A LOT of hummus, and tonight I decided to try to make it myself, and it turned out SO DELICIOUS!! So I figured I'd share the recipe
Homemade Hummus
  • 1 (15.5 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained
  • 1 small can chopped black olives (optional)olives
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons chopped fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon cilantro leaves
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 jalapeno (we like a little spice in ours)
  • Combine all ingredients in your food processor or blender and enjoy!! This recipe is so versatile, we've mixed in scallions, roasted red peppers, shallots...you can really add anything.
