Loaded Hummus Ingredients

Method

Loaded Hummus Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chickpeas

    Drain and rinse the canned chickpeas under cold water to remove excess sodium.

  2. 2

    Blend the Hummus

    In a food processor, combine the drained chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic clove, ground cumin, salt, and water. Blend until smooth and creamy. You may need to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.

  3. 3

    Adjust Consistency

    If the hummus is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is reached.

  4. 4

    Taste and Adjust Seasoning

    Taste the hummus and adjust seasoning as necessary, adding more salt, lemon juice, or cumin to suit your preference.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Toppings

    Chop the fresh parsley, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber into small pieces for garnishing the hummus.

  6. 6

    Serve the Hummus

    Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with additional olive oil and sprinkle with paprika. Top with chopped parsley, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber.

  7. 7

    Accompany with Pita Chips

    Serve the loaded hummus with pita chips for dipping.
