Low-Fat Hummus..

Postby Guest » 17 Jul 2007, 00:48

Who loves hummus, this is for you all..low-fat, low calorie version of my regular hummus recipe....
Low-Fat Hummus
1 (15-ounce can) garbanzo beans (chick peas), drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon low-fat peanut butter
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup warm water
1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup finely minced parsley leaves
1 teaspoon Sesame Seed Oil
1 tablespoon ground sumac or paprika for garnish
In a food processor or blender, place garbanzo beans, peanut butter, water, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, and salt; blend until pureed. Remove to bowl; mix in parsley and sesame seed oil. Refrigerate for several hours before serving.
VARIATION: For an interesting variation, substitute black beans or cannellini beans (Northern beans). Also substitute minced basil leaves for the parsley. Four ounces of minced roasted peppers may also be added.
Makes approximately 1 1/2 cups or 6 servings.
Serving size = 1/4 cup
