Variation on a theme

Sorry about the pause. I wasn't around to treat you to new and delicious things, but that is okay. We will pick up with delicious and new.

Remember that wonderful hummus? Of course you do. It was awesome. I know I enjoyed it much, and we ended up devouring it fairly rapidly. So I'm going to offer unto you a different hummus, in case you want the variety spice and you have a lot of black beans sitting around.

Black Bean Hummus

I would like to remind you that hummus is "garbanzo beans" and "food processor," so you really can be creative with the concept of hummus. We just wanted to try a shift that would utilize yogurt, because we're getting into a Greek yogurt kick (0% fat, baby!) and we enjoy using it in everything. Because yes.

Ingredients:
1/2 15 oz can chickpeas
1/2 15 oz can black beans
2 Tbsp Greek yogurt
1 garlic clove, chopped
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp coriander
2 tsp water
juice from 1 lemon

We got a little bit fancy with the spices this time. We also like to call this "lemon zinger" hummus, so if you don't like getting all your Vitamin C, you can lower the amount of lemon juice in this.

So the instructions are pretty fun and basic, by which I mean throw all of this in the food processor and blend the living hell out of it. And scoop it out and eat it.


It's pretty awesome.
