Home-Made Hummus Experiment

Yum!

With extra garlic and no tahini...

...in honor of Bobbi's garlic-lovers' hummus.  Bobbi's Hummus is a brand local to Philadelphia, and I fell in love with it there. 

240g chickpeas (canned/tinned or dried and cooked)
3 tbs olive oil
2 tbs lemon
3 large cloves of garlic
1/4 tsp salt, plus a bit to taste
1/4 tsp paprika

I combined the ingredients in a bowl and pureed with an immersion blender; tasted, and added salt and olive oil to taste.

This ended up being very yummy, and I am looking forward to making it again!  

Note: I came up with this by combining several on-line recipes, all of which called for both tahini and water.  I added several tbs of water, and ended up with soupier hummus than I like (though it still worked well to use carrot sticks to scoop it), so I am not listing water as a needed ingredient.
