I love hummus, but I find that the store bought stuff is expensive, relatively flavorless, and tends to go bad before I use it up...and I hate wasting food!! I also really like being able to control the acidity, salt, spices and fresh herbs, and the amount of oil when I make it myself. This is my most recent favorite. Even Stephen has said he likes it (and he wrinkles his nose anytime I mention hummus!)
2 can black beans, rinsed
2 cloves garlic
1/3 cup fresh cilantro
Juice of 1 lemon and 1/2 lime
1 tablespoon Sirracha or other hot sauce
1/3 cup olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
1. Pulse the garlic and cilantro until coarsely chopped
2. Add beans, lemon juice, olive oil, hot sauce, salt and pepper and mix until almost smooth. I usually stop and scrape the sides about halfway
3. Store in airtight container in the refrigerator and serve with organic tortilla chips and veggies
