>i would kill for hummus right now.


i want you to go home and make this hummus dip tonight.  it's so good.


ingredients:

1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas (garbanzo beans)

1/3 cup tahini (middle eastern sesame paste) or smooth peanut butter 
if you can't find tahini

1/4 cup lemon juice

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup hot water

put chickpeas into a strainer and rinse under cold water.  drain 
well.   combine chickpeas, tahini (or peanut butter), lemon juice, 
garlic and salt into blender or food processor.  puree until really 
smooth.  with machine still on, pour in hot water and blend until 
well mixed.  serve with pita triangles or tortilla chips.  yum.
