This was so good. I didn't have the tahini, however, I was going to the Asian store and got a huge bag of sesame seeds which I use all the time. I roasted 1/2 cup of them in a dry stainless steel skillet and put them in the food processor by themselves for a minute or two before I added the other ingredients. The consistency was a little coarser, but it had a fresher taste and was a little more cost effective.

I modified this. I did not use basil. I added 1/2 Tsp. of ground cumin and 1/4 tsp. cayanne pepper and 1/4 tsp. salt. I only used 2 T lemon juice, and 1 T tahini, and 1 T olive oil....

I love this recipe! It's easy, nutritious and delicious! I like to eat it with the brown rice and black sesame crackers for some extra fibre content.

OMGosh this is so EASY and GOOD. I was out of basil (imagine!) so used marjoram. I used the juice from a 1/2 lemon. I cannot stress enough how EASY this is and... Good! Thank you thank you for a great recipe. Next time I will make a double batch and try to leave enough to chill. :)

Very yummy! I added olive oil to the hummus and nixed the lemon since Hubby doesn't like citrus. I will make again!

This is great. It reminds me of the hummus we use to buy at the Farmer's Market in CA. I substituted peanut butter for tahini. and 4 cloves of garlic. The above reviewer is correct you must blend this for a very long time. The flavors keep getting stronger as it sets. My advice would be to make it a day ahead.

I've made this twice, once without tahini and then I finally went and bought the tahini and it was so much better! I also cooked the beans and added a t. olive oil and I think it made for a smoother consistency. It's really good!

This is so easy to make, and so yummy! You may want to double the recipe, as it goes fast! My children, ages 9 and 13, can't get enough of this.

Made it without the red peppers in deference to my husband, but it was still great (best after chilling). Thank you!

Followed the recipe exactly and it's not bad. Extremely easy and tasty. We used fresh pepper and lemon juice and I didn't find the lemon taste overpowering at all. I think next time I'll use a tad less tahini, roast the garlic, and toss in some cumin. It's definitely a keeper, and I think with a few minor modifications it would be restaurant quality.

Ilove hummus but was disappointed with this recipe. I followed the directions and used fresh, good quality ingredients. In my own opinion, this was way too lemon-y. It was a nice texture but mostly all I could taste was lemon. Probably would not make this again but thank you for sharing this recipe.

This has way too much tahini. Were I to make it again I would cut it in half... but with all the great hummus recipes out there, I probably won't make this one again anyhow.

Easy and nearly fool proof. I skipped the tahini (I'm not a fan of it) and used 3 Tbsp. of lemon juice and a small drizzle of olive oil, maybe 1 tsp. worth. Delicious with warm naan or everything bagel chips. I bet this will be even better the second day!

I've been making a great Weightwatcher's recipe for years, but wanted something different. This one is delicious, but I made a few changes to reduce fat and also because of the comments about so much lemon juice. I reduced the tahini -- which has a lot of fat in it -- and lemon juice to 2 tablespoons each and added 2 heaping tablespoons of plain, nonfat yogurt. Then, I used some roasted red pepper bruschetta spread, as I did not have roasted red peppers. It turned out creamy and flavorful.

Time well spent. I don't think I'll need to buy store bought hummus anymore. The red pepper added a great flavor. Thanks for sharing!
