So I finally broke down and bought a food processor… I’m obsessed! My blender just wasn’t cutting it (pun intended)! At 10pm on a Tuesday I decided it was a good idea to break it in and do a little recipe testing. Here’s what happened:

Ingredients:

• 1 can of garbanzo beans (rinsed)
• 12 oz bag of edamame (cooked and shelled)
•  1/2 cup basil (roughly chopped)
• 1/2 cup parsley (roughly chopped)
• 1 TBSP Tahini sauce
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1/3 cup lemon juice
• 1/2 cup water (as needed)
• 3-4 teaspoons Ultima Pietra Olive Oil
• Crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

Directions

1. Put garbanzo beans, edamame, basil, parsley, tahini red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper in the food processor and begin processing on low.
2. While processing, add lemon juice and olive oil. Process until smooth
3. Add water until your hummus is at your desired consistency.
4. Serve chilled and enjoy!
