The Mediterranean diet doesn’t just mean big meals, there are also plenty of snack options to add to your list. This delicious hummus dip is great for entertaining or an after workout snack. We suggest accompanying it with some low or no-salt crackers … Warning – it’s difficult to stop once you start dipping this one.
- PREP TIME: 3 mins
- COOK TIME: 3 mins
- TOTAL TIME: 8 mins
- SERVINGS: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 30 oz canned chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained with liquid reserved (I use two 15oz cans)
- 1/3 cup chickpea liquid, or more, as needed
- 1/2 cup tahini
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 lemons, juiced
- 2 garlic cloves
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp salt
Garnish
- olive oil
- paprika
- fresh parsley
Method
- Add all the ingredients to your Vitamix or high-powered blender and secure the lid. Remove the lid cap and insert the tamper.
- Turn the blender on high for 30 seconds (or more for a creamier texture) and use the tamper to push the hummus into the blades. Add more chickpea liquid (aquafaba), if desired, for a softer hummus.
- Add the hummus to a serving plate and garnish with olive oil, paprika and fresh parsley.
