Hummus in 5 minutes

A parent must be close by to supervise use of the food processor! This fast hummus makes a great after-school snack or lunch served with pita or fresh-cut vegetables. Kids love hummus! Pro Tip – For super silky hummus, remove the peels from the chickpeas.

Makes 4 cups

Ingredients:
¼ garlic clove
Juice of 1 lemon, about 1/4 cup
1 (16-ounce) jar tahini- find it in the international food aisle
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 to 1 ½ cups ice water
2 (15-ounce) cans chickpeas, drained and rinsed

Directions:
1. Drop the 1/4 garlic clove into a food processor and add the lemon juice. Pour the tahini on top, making sure to scrape it all out of the container, and add the salt and cumin. Process until the mixture looks peanut-buttery, about 1 minute. Stream in the ice water, a little at a time, with the motor running. Process just until the mixture is smooth and creamy and lightens to the color of dry sand.

2. Add the chickpeas and process for about 3 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl as you go, until the chickpeas are completely blended and the hummus is smooth and uniform in color.
