Dips! Dips! and more Dips! - Updated

Lita's Hummus
1 can of chickpeas, rinsed
3 cloves of garlic
1/4 cup of olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste


Throw everything into the food process and turn it on to the lowest setting. Hummus should be a smooth consistency. Add salt and pepper as desired. You may need to add more olive oil to help lubricate the blades as it breaks down the chickpeas and garlic cloves.

Goes great with corn chips as well as carrots!
