Artichoke Hummus  by CharPrep Time: 10 minsCook Time: 0 mins Ingredients Instructions Place all ingredients in a food processor (this includes the water from the artichokes) and blend until well-combined. Drizzle with high quality olive oil and garnish with fresh or dried parsley. Serve with fresh vegetables or tortilla chips or even quinoa socca (since it's not chickpea related). For a hummus newbie, I think I did pretty good. I half expected that it would have actually been:a) a waste of my chickpeasb) something I would gag over but try to eat anyways for the sake of not wasting.  Obviously you can see my expectations are fairly low when trying something new! But, a life lesson I learned from this experience: don't be afraid to try new things...you might just surprise yourself! Making my own hummus has actually fueled the fire. My next attempt will probably involve a lot of heat - that way if it doesn't turn out, my mouth will be half-paralyzed by peppers! QUESTION: Any other hummus newbies out there? Or if you make it quite often, what are your favourite flavour combos?! |

Sometimes, I would hold off on buying it just in case it went on sale. And then when it never did, I would buy it anyways. After all, good hummus deserves to be in my belly.
Besides, if I never bought the overpriced, delicious hummus, then what other hummus would I eat? I couldn't just go without hummus...what kind of world would that be?! That's until I discovered making your own hummus (read: I finally realized that it really is that easy to make your own).
