Trader Joe's Hummus
48
Make your own copycat Trader Joe's Hummus in just minutes!
4
2 cans garbanzo beans (chickpeas) drained (about 3 cups)
*1 garlic clove (I used 3 the first time & 2 the second… I like 3 better)
6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons tahini (we used roasted tahini, found at our food coop)
1 1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper (I did more like 3/4 teaspoon because John likes the spice)
about 1/2 cup hot water
*update 7/8/13: I just tried roasting some garlic & using that in place of the raw garlic & it gives the hummus a much more creamy, roasty flavor. I used 2 BULBS of garlic & roasted it in a little bit of olive oil in a cast iron skillet until it was soft. Then I pulsed it in the food processor with all of the other ingredients. Delish.

Place the garlic clove in the food processor and pulse a few times. Dump the rest of the ingredients in to the food processor, except for the hot water, and run for 3-4 minutes. After the first 30 seconds...
