Olive Hummus
I love making hummus and always try to keep some in my refrigerator because it is such a staple in our household. Works as a quick snack; thin outs for a sauce; spread for a wrap/sandwiches; and much much more!
I like to cook my own chickpeas in the instapot. Its quick, easy, and you have full control of the flavors.
2 cups Dry Chickpeas (soaked over night)
2 tablespoons Avocado Oil
2 tablespoons Salt
2 tablespoons Garlic Powder
2 tablespoons Onion Powder
1 ea Bay leaf
6-8 cups Water
Cook in instapot for 35-40 minutes
Strain and cool on a sheet tray
1/2 teaspoon Salt
2 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1/4 cup Water
1/4 cup Pitted Kalamata Olives
Pinch of Black Pepper (personal choice)
1/3 cup Tahini
3 ea Garlic Cloves
Juice of 1 Lemon
In the food processor, blend everything but the water together until smooth.
Taste for seasoning and slowly drizzle water into the running processor for right consistency.
