INGREDIENTS (Nutrition)

  • 1 (19 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained
  • 3 tablespoons tahini (sesame-seed paste)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil, divided
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 3 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons water, or as needed
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 6 pita bread rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed
  • 2 teaspoons coarse salt
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary

What to Drink?

DIRECTIONS

  1. Mash garlic with the salt in a small bowl. Place into a blender or food processor along with the garbanzo beans, lemon juice, honey, and enough water to cover the beans. Process until smooth. Spoon into a serving dish, and drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the top.
  2. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Brush pita breads with remaining olive oil, and cut into wedges. Season with salt and fresh rosemary. Bake for 5 minutes in the preheated oven. Cool, and serve with hummus.
