(2) garlic cloves chops and mashed to a paste with 1/2 teasp. salt

1/2 cup parsley

1/4 cup water

(3) Tbs lemon juice

1/4 cup olive oil

In a blender or food processor blend all but the oil till smooth. Then add oil in a slow stream.

Thanks! Yes! Add cumin and sesame paste ( I use a little peanut butter instead), and it's hummus! I make it all the time! Love it on toast for breakfast- very healthy!

@ahoymate , I'm not a big fan of hummus, so I was happy to find this dip minus the tahini.

Love hummus especially when there is garlic in it.

I do not buy too often lately as my husband does not care for it.

Most any bean can be used, depending on how you want to lean. I have even dipped leftover refried red beans with peppers.

@QVCkitty1 This is hummus minus the tahini paste. It's actually what I have been making for years as there is too much oil in store bought hummus so I can trol the ingredients. Yum!
