Save Money, Make Your Own Hummus

I looove hummus! But...it can be a bit expensive.  So I looked up the recipe and was surprised how easy and inexpensive it is to make.  

You'll need a food processor and the following ingredients:

2 cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 cloves of garlic

1/2 cup water

Freshly ground black pepper

Ground paprika

Pinch of cayenne pepper

In a food processor fitted with an S blade, combine all ingredients and process for about 2 minutes or until finely ground.  Now just serve!  You can cover and refrigerate leftovers for about a week.

Tip: Use as a spread with your veggie sandwiches or wraps for extra protein and flavor!
