  1. Changed a few things.... I only used 2 Tablespoons of Light olive oil and added 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) of the bean juice (I did not rinse the beans either). I used 3/4 cup or so of pickled Jalapeno slices, added 4 sliced green onions, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/4 teaspoon of pepper, 1/4 cup lime juice & the zest of the lime and a little more Cilantro than called for. I feel 1/2 cup of Olive oil is way to much to add to it... the bean juice from the can worked very well and made a very wonderful Hummus that is a bit healthier! 5 stars & thanks for sharing! :)
     
  2. Just made this and its delicious!! Can't wait to have it later after it chills out for a while in the fridge :)
     
  3. A day without hummus is...is...okay. It's okay, but just "okay". Makes sense?
     
  4. This recipe is delicious! I used about 1/3 cup of olive oil, one BIG jalapeno, and everything else by the recipe. I also put it in the food processor a little longer at the end. Amazing flavor! :)
     
  5. Great recipe. Simple and tasty. I added a little more lime juice for an extra kick. Thanks!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I currently live in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, although that will be changing shortly. I was living in Guatemala for the past few months, and plan on returning for a 2 year teaching assignment this coming January. I have always loved to cook, and the more complicated recipe, the better. I also love any type of ethnic food, so most of the recipes you see in my cookbook are of that variety.
