    Here is the recipe I sent

    1 can garbanzo beans, drained, keep the liquid
    1 avocado
    3 T lemon juice
    1 t garlic, minced
    1/4 t sea salt
    1 jalepeno
    1/2 t cumin
    1 T olive oil

    Put it all in a blender or food processor and blend it up. Add some of the liquid from the beans to thin it out as needed.

    I started my love of hummus by adding it to my salad at Jason's Deli rather than using a salad dressing.

    Thanks! I love hummus too. I dip cucumbers and carrots. Making it would be alot cheaper that buying it.

    I have it almost every day...I've given up butter and all dairy so it's a handy substitute... I have it on toast, crumpets, in noodles as a sauce, as a dip with cucumber, carrots etc. I go for the organic version from Tesco. Only prob is the garlic, my boyfriend says I HUM after houmous!

    Love me some hummus, but I've recently found that pesto sauce added to it makes it mind-blowing! Only thing better is baba ghanouj (which is also the funnest word to say everest!)

    Baba Ghanouj is pretty much the same thing, only made with roasted eggplant instead of garbanzo beans.

    I make my own with canned chick peas, garlic, lemon juice, and tahini. Or I buy Sabra. Love hummus! Trader Joes has pretty good hummus too.

    I really love it on celery and that adds no additional calories. Also on the pretzel thins.

    I have found I have a new found love for turkey jerky!

    I make my own hummus. Canned garbanzo beans..garlic ,olive oil , tahini , lime juice and sprinkle paprika. I buy fresh whole wheat pita bread from the Mediterranean Market. Yum!:smile:

    ^^This! Much yummier made from scratch and so easy to make with a food processor.

    There's a recipe floating around using fat free yogurt in it instead of tahini. I'll try to dig it up if anyone's interested. I'll have to try the one posted above with avacado, sounds great.
