Prepare:
-1 can of chick peas, drained and rinsed (I should have used the fresh, maybe, and also removed the peels... but I didn't)
-1/3 cup tahini
-Several cloves of garlic
-Some olive oil
-Juice of 1/2-1 whole lemon, pending your taste
-1/2-1 tsp pending on your taste of the following: cumin, paprika, black pepper, salt
Cook:
-Roast the garlic in the peel in a toaster oven for about 20 minutes or until soft
-Process the chick peas first
-Add garlic, oil, lemon juice, and spices
-Add oil/water until reaches desirable consistency and flavor
-Garnish with some olive oil, parsley, and pine nuts, and enjoy with fresh pita, bread, or crackers

I LOVE making hummus. My favorite variation is adding avocado and cilantro, but I also really like adding simple jarred kalamata olives and maybe a bit of red pepper. The olives also make it really purple, which is fun to eat!
Also, thanks for the dedicated post. We made the granola again this week with some mango syrup (not like pancake syrup, but thicker; I'm not really sure what it's meant for because the label is all in Chinese ...) and it was also very good, particularly with some fresh coconut on top.
