Eat-Clean Hummus

Hummus, coupled with whole wheat pita bread and a handful of vegetables is one of my favorite lunches (Ben likes his spread on crackers).  It’s healthy and super easy to make.  Best of all, it’s freezer friendly.  I freeze mine in individual portions so I always have some on hand for a quick lunch or snack. 

Eat-Clean Hummus

2 to 3 cloves garlic
540 ml canned chickpeas, rinsed and well drained
1 tsp. sea salt
1/3 cup tahini
Juice of 1 fresh lemon
2 Tbsp. olive oil 

Place all ingredients in a food processor.  Pulse for a few minutes until well combined and serve.
