Hummus

Here's my recipe for hummus:

2 cloves garlic
a handful of sesame seeds
a can of chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup or so of fresh parsley leaves


Put the garlic and seeds in a food processor. Turn it on for a few seconds to mince the garlic. Add the chickpeas. Turn on the processor. You may want to add a little water to make it smoother (about 1/3 cup). Once your hummus is smooth, add the parsley. Pulse it a little longer. You don't want to puree the parsley, just chop it up a bit and get it mixed in.

Serve on a pita, topped with a few nuts or seeds for extra flavor, like pine nuts, or as a veggie dip.
