Directions
Quick Hummus really is a quick recipe to make.
Drain some chickpeas, put them in a food processor with all of the other ingredients and whizz to whatever consistency you like. Serve with warm flat bread of your choice. Go on try making your own and see if it is better than the shop bought stuff.
(A little secret – I was terrified of showing the kids that Hummus was made of chickpeas after all it took me until I was 30 to try the stuff….fortunately they were not fazed!)
