Make sure you dice up the garlic before you put it in. I just threw it in the blender so my hummus has giant chunks of garlic in it. How long does the hummus last? I think this is delicious!

That was it. I just fell in love with the texture. :) LOL it was just a simple wrap with hummus, cucumbers, tomatoes, greens and red onion. That was it. I just fell in love with the texture. :)

I made it last night and included it on my new favorite 4 point sandwich: Take an Alternative whole wheat pita: 1 point, 1 Chile Lime Chicken burger from Trader Joes: 2 points, and a nice slice of roasted red pepper: 0 points and some fresh baby spinach leaves: 0 points and spread the hummus: 1 point somewhere amongst it all and yummy! Thanks Roni for the great recipes. This is great!

I love Hummus and make it often. I will try the sesame oil instead of tahini to cut some of the calories and I really like the flavor of cumin so will add that instead of curry. Can't wait to try it.

I've never used chicken broth, though. I've always used 1/3 cup liquid from the drained chickpeas. I keep roasted garlic in the fridge (those little jars sold in the produce section) and add a couple of teaspoons before processing. Since counting WW points, I tried making a batch with NO oil, and honestly - I can't tell the difference. I love hummus and make it weekly. I’ve never used chicken broth, though.

It's easiest to use the jarred kind that are packed in water. Our recipe is similar to yours, but with garbanzo beans, sesame tahini, red peppers, meyer lemon juice, lots of roasted garlic, Sambal (chili paste), and salt/pepper of course. It's one of my favorite snacks!! Try adding red peppers for a little bit of a kick. It’s easiest to use the jarred kind that are packed in water.

I didn't have sesame oil, but I just threw in the seeds. I left out the broth and added a little of the juice with the chickpeas and yummy. It's a great veggie dip! I'm eating my celery now.
