From Zone Perfect Meals in seconds. This is my favorite hummus recipe - delicious flavor and a great balance of protein/carbs/fat. My DH and SIL, both big hummus fans, say they prefer my hummus over any other. I often serve it alongside quinoa tabouleh as an appetizer with pretzels/crackers/celery for dipping or as a spread in wraps, etc. Ingredients:
2 cups chickpeas, drained, canned, cooked (save juice) |
14 ounces tuna in water, drained, canned, no-salt |
2 hard-boiled eggs |
1/2 cup tahini, raw or 1/2 cup sesame tahini, raw, toasted, unsalted |
1/3 cup lemon juice, fresh (1 lemon) |
1/4 cup fresh parsley, minced |
3 garlic cloves, minced |
1 teaspoon ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper |
1 cup filtered water or 1 cup chickpea liquid |
1/2 teaspoon sea salt (optional) |
ground paprika (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. Combine the chickpeas, tuna, eggs, tahini, lemon juice, parsley,garlic, cumin, pepper, and chickpea juices or water in the work bowl of a food processor. 2. Add sea salt if desired. 3. Cover and process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides with a spatula. 4. Add additional water as needed to blend. Taste and adjust the seasonings. 5. Cover and refrigerate. |
