Low Fat Hummus
Makes a little over one cup

1 (1 1/4 cup) can chickpeas
2 garlic cloves
1 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 1/2 tablespoons roasted tahini
1/2 teaspoon cumin (optional)

Drain the chickpeas, saving the liquid.

Peel and mince the garlic.

Add chickpeas, garlic, lemon juice, and tahini to the food processor. Blend until its coarsely processed, scraping down the sides to make sure it all gets evenly processed.

Add the reserved chickpea liquid (roughly a quarter cup) until it is a desired consistency.

Adjust to your own tastes; add more garlic, add more cumin or parsley, and to make creamy add some yogurt.
