Homemade Hummus

When I was a vegetarian, I lived on Hummus sandwiches. I now serve it with toasted pita wedges. This recipe uses orange juice instead of olive oil. Not only does it give it a nice citrus flavor, it is a great low-fat alternative to regular hummus.

Homemade Hummus

1 Large can Garbanzo Beans / Chick Peas
½ t Cumin, ground
¼ t Coriander, ground
¼ t Ginger, ground
¼ t Dry Mustard
¼ t Turmeric
¼ t Paprika
½ t Salt
3 Large Garlic Cloves
¼ c Tahini (sesame seed paste)
1-2 t Apple Cider Vinegar
1 – 2 t soy sauce
½ c Orange Juice

Puree all ingredients in large food processor until smooth.

Makes 2 cups
