This is good for a base recipe.. but needs more spice. I added cumin, coriander, cayenne, and a bit of chilli powder. Delicious!

Delicious! Next time around I will cut down a little on the lemon juice, it came through a little too strong for my taste. Overall this is a wonderful, easy hummus recipe and all of my roommates loved it!

This is a nice recipe. I made one batch with the original instructions - yummy. Second batch, I roasted the garlic - yummy! Thanks for sharing - we love all hummus!

Cooking my own garbanzo beans definitely punched up the flavor. I just soak dried beans for 8 hours )or up to 24 hours), and cook them with lots of herbs - basil, bay leaf, garlic - to make things a bit more interesting. Having fresh lemon juice makes a big difference as well.

This was very delicious!!!! Wow~~ my first hummus turned out great! Thank you for the recipe! I did reduced the amount of Tahini like the other viewer recommended, and I added hand full of left over dry roasted pine nuts I had in the fridge. The color is absolutely beautiful and taste is stunning! With all these beans, nuts and seeds with garlic and lemon? I feel healthier already!!!

A good way to use roasted red peppers, olives, basil, cumin. Easy on the red pepper. Add salt.

Fantastic! I just finished making this and tasted it. Roasted my own red pepper (used 1 whole one) and followed the recipe pretty closely except I added a dash of salt and used half the lemon. This couldn't be an easier recipe and it is SOOOO much better than store bought! For those who said it was missing something, it's probably all those chemicals in the store bought we are all used to eating. :) Will make this again and again, also trying other flavors. It was great even before I added the red pepper. Thanks Marbalet! Highly recommended.
