Hummus with Warm Pita Bread
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Microwave Time: 5 minutes
1 can of chick peas, drained (garbanzo beans)
3 cloves of garlic, peeled
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon tahini
Water
1 package pita bread
Add the 3 cloves of peeled garlic to a food processor, and process until garlic is finely minced. Open and drain the can of chick peas, and add those to the garlic. Then, add in the tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, and salt. Process these ingredients well, so it forms a thick paste. Finally, turn the processor on, and slowly add water until the hummus thins out to a nice spread. Pour the hummus into a serving bowl or platter and drizzle with a little extra olive oil, and sprinkle with paprika.
Cut about 4 pieces of pita bread into triangles. Place on a microwave-safe plate and microwave for 1 minute, until bread is soft and warm. Dip in the hummus, and enjoy!
