15 min
easy
6 servings
Servings4
15 oz canned chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
½ lemon (juiced, or more to taste)
1 clove of garlic
¼ cup tahini
¼ cup fresh dill
2-4 tbsp cold water (or enough to reach desired consistency)
salt and pepper (to taste)

tahini

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sunflower seed butter

Greek yogurt adds creaminess with fewer calories.

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Canola oil is a more budget-friendly option.

1

Add the clove of garlic to your food processor and pulse/process until broken down into small pieces.

2

Then, add the chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini and salt. Process until very smooth (take 1-2 breaks to scrape the walls and bottom of the food processor).

3

Then, keep processing while pouring the cold water into the feeding tube of your food processor. Add 1 tablespoon at a time and keep going until it reaches the desired consistency. The hummus will turn light, fluffy and super creamy.

4

Add the fresh dill and pulse/process until chopped and well incorporated. You can also add the dill at the beginning with the chickpeas if you want to avoid pieces of herbs.

5

Taste and adjust salt and lemon juice to your preferences. Enjoy as a dip with cucumber, carrots, crackers, and pita bread or you can also use it in grain bowls, rice dishes or as a pasta sauce.
