There is a reason hummus has taken the world by storm. It is creamy, spreadable, dippable, packed with winning Mediterranean flavors, and good for you ingredients. It’s an all-around win.

Do you know what else it is? Easy to make at home. That’s right. No need to keep purchasing plastic tubs of this dreamy condiment at the grocery store. We can do it ourselves.

It is a pretty minimalist recipe. You need some garbanzo beans (canned or home cooked would both work), tahini, and flavorings of choice. I make mine in a high-speed blender, which gives it that store-bought impossibly smooth texture, but a food processor can also work here. Just be sure to scrape down the sides frequently.

For this rendition, I used cilantro and lime for some south of the border flair. The combination is a winner. And, this flavor-packed hummus requires only 5 simple pantry ingredients, a little salt, and a couple of tablespoons of water.

Impress your guests with homemade hummus at your next soiree! It won’t disappoint!

Ingredients you’ll need for this easy hummus recipe:

• 1 1/2 cups cooked chickpeas OR 1 can chickpeas, drained
• 1/4 cup tahini
• 1 lime, juiced
• 2 tablespoons water
• 1 bunch cilantro, stems removed and roughly chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin

Directions to prepare homemade hummus:

1. Add the chickpeas, tahini, lime, and water into a high speed blender. Blend, scraping down the sides as necessary until smooth.

2. Add in the cilantro, salt, and cumin. Blend until the cilantro is broken down and the hummus is smooth and green. Serve with your favorite accompaniments.
