Hummus
This is a great dip to have on hand. It contains protein & healthy fat, which balances blood sugar & provides long-lasting energy - plus it's packed with fiber. It's delicious with raw or steamed veggies and is an excellent sandwich spread - just add avocado, tomato, lettuce, sprouts, shredded carrots, sunflower seeds, etc. for a very filling & satisfying meal.
Ingredients:
1 (15 oz.) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans)
2 T sesame tahini
2 T lemon juice
3 small garlic cloves
4 T minced fresh parsley (or 2 T dry)
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper
Instructions:
Drain chickpeas, reserving juice. Transfer peas to a food processor or blender with 1/2 C reserved chickpea juice & remainder of ingredients. Process or blend well, adding more juice if needed for blending or to achieve desired consistency.
