Hummus

I decided to try make my own hummus recipe today - well, it's not much different from the standard hummus recipe, but I like this one 'cause I added ingredients in proportions that I like, plus I added some turmeric . . . haven't seen that in a hummus yet.  Anyway, here it is!

1 can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
6 tbs tahini
juice of 1/2 a lemon
salt to taste
pinch of fine black pepper
3 tbs ground flaxseed
2 tbs olive oil
1/2 cup water
1/4 tsp cumin powder
1/4 tsp turmeric powder

Throw it all in a food processor and blend until smooth.

What I also like about this one is that it's nice and thick.
