Cilantro Jalapeno Hummus

 

2 cloves garlic

2 15 ounce cans garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed

3 tablespoons lime juice

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup olive oil

3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced

 

Place garlic in a food processor and process until minced, about 10 seconds.

Add beans, lime juice and salt. Process into a puree. With the processor

running, slowly add olive oil in a steady stream through the feed tube. Process

until mixture thickens, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add cilantro and jalapeno and

pulse throughout, about 10 seconds. Store in an airtight container in the

refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.

Makes 2 cups.
