Hummus I
This is a very basic recipe for the popular garbanzo and
   sesame seed pate. Vary the flavor by adding a few mint
   leaves, a little fresh ginger, or red pepper flakes. I make it
   in a food processor now, but I used to make it by putting
   the garbanzo beans through a ricer. Prep Time: approx. 10
   Minutes. Ready in: approx. 10 Minutes. Makes 3 cups (24
   servings).

1/4 cup chopped green onions

Hummus III
Hummus is a pureed garbanzo bean dip with Middle Eastern
   origins. Serve with pita and an assortment of fresh vegetables.

   Minutes. Makes 2 cups (16 servings).

Here's a really yummy one, given to me by one of my flybaby friends:


2 cups cooked chickpeas, drained (rinsed if using canned)
1 T. tahini (sesame paste)
2 T fresh lemon juice
2/3 c plain non-fat yogurt
1/2 clove garlic, grated or minced
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp paprika
2 T minced fresh cilantro


In small bowl or right in blender, combine tahini, lemon juice, yogurt, garlic, spices and cilantro. Add chickpeas (not too much at a time or your blender will stall). If the flavor is too strong, you can thin it down with more yogurt.


This is basic hummus


You can make a "flavored" version by adding roasted sweet red pepper right into the blender with the other ingredients.


Garnish with a bit of minced cilantro on top if you like (otherwise the color is a little bland).


Serve in a bowl surrounded by raw veggies, (warmed wedges of pita bread or sliced crusty bread for special days or your non-SBD guests).
