An easy-to-make, light and zesty Mediterranean-flavored hummus. A hit with my friends and family, this is great as an appetizer, side dish, or versatile dip for veggies, pita or chips. Ingredients:
1 (15.5 ounce) can garbanzo beans (chickpeas), drained |
1/3 cup pitted spanish manzanilla 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 |
Directions:
1. Place garbanzo beans, olives, and garlic into the bowl of a blender or food processor. Pour in olive oil and lemon juice; season with basil, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Cover and puree until smooth. Hummus can be served immediately, or covered, and stored in the refrigerator until ready to use. |
