I've been making hummus a lot lately, playing around with the recipe. This is one I found on epicurious.
* 2 cloves garlic
* 1/2 tsp salt
* 19oz can garbanzos (stupid Trader Joes comes in 15oz cans)
* 1/3 cup tahini
* 2 tbs lemon juice
* 1/4 cup water (not shown)
* 2 tbs oil

I processed the garlic and salt together first.

Then everything else. I suppose the recipe came with directions, but that's the beauty of hummus - just blend stuff. I also mixed it up a bit and added 3 large habenero stuffed olives.

It was really good! The olives made it really interesting. Alternating chews would taste like olive, or have the habanero's kick, or taste of olive oil, or sucker punch you with garlic.
The garlic was actually a bit strong for my tastes - maybe using a smaller portion of chick peas than called for left the garlic a little overwhelming. Next time I'll try using roasted garlic instead, for a mellower taste.
Or sun-dried tomatoes... or black olive... or goat cheese... or roasted eggplant... or roasted bell pepper...
