Here is how you make Easy, Healthier Homemade Hummus (no added oil necessary):

You'll need a food processor for this recipe. If you have a nice pourable Tahini:1) Simply add all ingredients to food processor except the water and pulse a few times until it is a course mixture. 2) Then turn on low speed and very slowly add a tablespoon or so of your water at a time until the consistency is what you like. 3) Then turn up to high and let it rip for a minute or two to really get the consistency smooth. If your Tahini is drier and you have to scoop it out, you'll need to loosen it up as best as you can.1a) Blend Tahini and lemon juice in the food processor. If necessary you can try to add a little water at this stage too, but try not to use too much. Once the tahini is smooth you can follow the steps above. Serving Size:?Approximately 1/2 cup
