Hummus from home.

Home made hummus is quick, easy and delicious. All you need is:
1 can of Garbonzo beans (chick peas)
6 or 7 cloves of garlic
2 teaspoons dried basil
Juice from half of a lemon
5 or 6 peanuts (or monkey nuts) out of the shell
1/2-3/4 cup Extra Virgin olive oil (use more for a smoother hummus)



Combine all the ingredients an a food processor and blend until the it has reached the consistency you prefer. Extra smooth and creamy is about 10 minutes. I prefer a couple extra lumps in mine, I enjoy the texture.



Serve with fresh warm pita or on pita chips!!
