An Easy Hummus Recipe

Simply made from mashed chickpeas and blended with tahini, lemon juice, garlic, olive oil and some seasoning, this creamy and smooth hummus is a delicious and savory dip. Making it from scratch (as with most things) tastes even better than the store bought options. Enjoy the dip with some fresh cut veggies or serve along side warm toasted naan. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!
