Homemade Hummus

This is an absolutely delicious hummus recipe courtesy of Cynthia. You will find it on her blog Muddy Spoon. I've made only a few minor modifications but it's great with warm pita bread or raw veggies and I love it with stir fry. Give it a try, I promise it won't disappoint.

Ingredients:

2-2 1/2 cups chickpeas (or 2 cans)

1/2 cup tahini

1/2 cup lemon juice

1/4 cup fresh parsley

1 red jalapeno pepper

1-2 tsp. cumin

1/2 tsp. cayenne pepper

1 tsp. salt

1 small yellow onion

5 cloves garlic

1 tbsp. olive oil

Directions:

in a small saucepan, saute onions and garlic in olive oil until onions are translucent. Blend all ingredients in a food processor until smooth. It's best if eaten after being refrigerated for at least an hour.
