Real Hummus

I had never used a recipe with Tahini in it so I want to give it a try and check out the texture.  It is used in Hummus recipes.  I like a lot of garlic so this is pretty garlicky (is that a word).  If you don’t like a big garlic flavor then cut down on the garlic because it truly is strong, which is fine with me.

This is so easy to make, why bother buying it in the grocery store with preservatives in it.  Make it homemade and grab your chips and dip away.
