Be a facilitator of your own prosperity...

Hommos

1 can (I use the larger Progresso can in the bean section) Chick Peas/Garbanzo Beans/Ceci Beans, drained, liquid reserved
5 tablespoons Taheen (also spelled Tahini) - (I use the can with a brown/orange label & a man's face or an white jar with orange lid and blue writing in another language), be sure you completely stir the Taheen as it will come separated
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons lemon juice
4 LARGE cloves garlic
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

1. Combine everything in food processor. You will need to add about 1/4-1/2 cup of the reserved chick pea liquid to thin out the hommos so that it gets nice and smooth
2. Be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl every now and then as it is processing. Let the food processor run for about 4-5 minutes. Adjust the taste with more lemon, salt, pepper to your desire.
3. Serve immediately or chill to enjoy later!
ENJOY!!
