Marla's Hummus

INGREDIENTS
1 can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
1/3 – 1/2 cup lemon juice
2 cloves garlic
1 1/2 –2 Tbsp Tahini (can substitute peanut butter but not preferred)
1/2 tsp salt
2-3 Tbsp olive oil

DIRECTIONS
Process chickpeas and garlic in a blender or food processor until finally chopped. Add lemon juice, Tahini and salt process until mixed well then add olive oil to desired consistency. Add a little chili powder with the olive oil, if you like. You could also add olives for a variation or garnish. Serve with pita chips or veggies (Marla recommends *baby carrots*).
