Golden Produce is a vegetable stand near my apartment. YUM!

This morning - I stopped by and picked up all my favorite hummus fixings... and they had

2 cloves garlic—roughly chopped
¼ cup lemon juice
¼ cup water
a 14 oz can of chickpeas (garbanzo beans)— rinsed and drained
½ cup tahini
1 teaspoon sea salt

and today's surprise - - - two tablespoons of red hot spicy red pepper jelly!

OMG FLAVORGASM - not only does my house smell delicious - but my tummy is full and my mouth is still tingling from the garlicky spicyness. I ate it on toast with fresh tomatoes. and lots of ground black pepper. The tahini paste was also an interesting addition - since it's a paste made from sesame seeds.

Oh

My

Gosh

try it today - it's so easy!!

I don't usually have tahini on hand, but sesame oil does the job pretty well.

Sometimes, the hummous I make has a nearly equal amount of garlic and garbanzos.....I call it: " fear no vampire"......

Pardon the lateness...

This sounds like it would be a bit loose/wet, but I love the sound of the surprise ingredient. I'm going to have to gie this a whirl for sure. Thanks!
