How to Make Low Fat Hummus Spread

  1. Add 1 (15-ounce) can of chickpeas (drained and rinsed), 1/4 cup tahini, 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 cup ice water to a food processor.
  2. Secure the lid and process until completely smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. Add more ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if necessary to reach desired consistency.
  3. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed, adding more lemon juice, salt, or cumin to your preference.
  4. Transfer the hummus to an airtight container. Press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the hummus to prevent browning.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld before serving. Enjoy!
