I drain a can of chickpeas over a bowl then rinse the beans and toss them into the food processor with a bit of olive oil, some garlic, cumin, one of these: sriracha/roasted red pepper/jalapeno, a Tbsp or so of tahini, and a little liquid drained from the can to help reach the desired consistency. Just pulse it up and chill.
Edit: forgot cumin0 -
1 can of chickpeas drained, 1 can of black beans drained, 4 huge cloves of garlic, juice of 1 lemon (or more!), 1 seeded jalapeno, cumin, salt, and pepper... I don't add any additional fat... if I need liquid for consistency I use more lemon juice or water... so good!!0

been meaning to try this recipe for sweet potato hummus
http://www.wholeliving.com/133217/sweet-potato-hummus0 -
Cannellini beans, garlic sauteed in olive oil, and rosemary. Mash up and spread on toasted whole wheat pita points.
(I don't care for chickpeas at all.)0 -
1 can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained, juice of half a lemon, garlic (I use the paste that comes in tubes), 2 or more tablespoons of tahini, dash of cayenne, salt. Process until smooth, adding water until hummus is the consistency you want. I don't put olive oil in the hummus itself, but often drizzle it on top before serving.
Additions according to mood: black olives, roasted red pepper, jalapeno, fresh parsley.
Also like white bean spreads, black bean spreads, and now I think I need to dig up an old Moosewood recipe for a feta/walnut spread...0 -
Chickpeas, tahini, loads of garlic, more cumin than it seems like you should need, coriander, lemon juice, olive oil. Destroy.0

I do the standard canned chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, tahini, salt, pepper, cumin... and I also add chipotle for a kick. Yummy!0

Here's my basic recipe, put all in a food processor or blender including the reserved liquid from the can of beans. I also add whatever suits my mood, typically pimento stuffed olives...but the possibilities are endless.
1 15-ounce can garbanzos
(reserve 1/4 cup liquid)
1/4 cup tahini (sesame paste)
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 large garlic cloves, peeled and cut into thirds
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
salt to taste
Olive oil to drizzle
parsley for garnish0 -
