I'm going to whip some up in my fancy new blender tonight.
-
my goodness, woman, must you turn every food into a smoothie?
-
:D :D :D

Mmmmm... I think I'm going to try this one. I'm skeptical about the yogurt, but will try.
Ingredients:

.Units: US | Metric
.3 garlic cloves, minced, more if you like
1/4 cup plain low-fat yogurt
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 (19 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
I wonder if the yogurt means it won't keep very long?

:roll:

you guys are most unhelpful.

I'm skeptical of your recipe Rio. Only a tsp of oil and yogurt and then no tahini (and only 1/4 tsp salt)?
I don't follow a recipe but did have an emergency recently where I had to mix in a can of pumpkin. That was surprisingly good (and my DH didn't notice it was there just that it was a bit different than usual).
In the vitamix I just use sesame seeds instead of tahini so if you don't have it, and your blender is really fancy, those work too.
-
I'm skeptical too... but I'll try it. I've used peanut butter instead of tahini before, it works in a pinch (not the same, but will do).
Good thing chickpeas are cheap!

I like it with white beans instead of chickpeas.
-
I usually use a can of chickpeas to about a quarter cup of tahini. To this I add roasted red pepper. Lemon juice and salt.
I drizzle olive oil on top. maybe some paprika.
-
MUST HAVE TAHINI!!!!!
-
And *lots* of garlic!

Make this one.
"Hummus" is chickpea in Hebrew. If there are no chickpeas in your bean dip, it's not hummus. And that yogurt thing, not hummus either. But please report back. :D

chickpeas, tahini, garlic, lemon juice, salt - I usually start by blending everything EXCEPT the chickpeas, then adding the chickpeas a few at at time until it's too thick to take any more; then I water it down a bit and add the rest of the chickpeas a few at a time.... with your superpower blender, however, you can probably put everything in at once
for a slightly different take, sub in black beans for the chickpeas, greek yogurt (or not) for the tahini, lime for the lemon.

I've made it in the VitaMix and it comes out perfect consistency.
Need to make it again.
And start with dried chickpeas now that I have a pressure cooker. :)

just because you're all haters I'm totally doing the yogurt one. :D And then I'll report back.

you go, yogurt lady.
if all else fails, just add an orange and call it healthful.
-
or 5 oranges and call it "the road to diabetes"!
-
And *lots* of garlic!
YES!!
I totally forgot I put garlic in mine too.
-
Rio i tagged you on a hummus recipe post on pinterest last night.
-
Hmmm, we never did get the report on the yogurt/chickpea smoothie... :P
I just overheated my VitaMix making hummus. It's out on the porch cooling down. DH said I added too much tahini. I had fresh cooked chickpeas and am making a huge batch so I didn't really measure. :-[
Using fresh garlic from the garden. :drooling-5: It's much stronger tasting than store-bought.
