Garlic Hummus - Phase 3, Hormone Rx & Metabolism Revolution

This is a favorite in my house. I have to make several batches a week for my son and husband. I like to dip carrots and cucumber slices in it, the boys use crackers. 
I prefer to make this than buy it so I can use organic chick peas and it is cheaper to make than buying it. I also can avoid the preservatives and make this complaint to FMD. In FMD, this is a healthy fat for phase 3. 

Here is my video on making this: https://youtu.be/xIAB5f6VB7Q

Garlic Hummus

1 can organic chick peas, drained and rinsed
3-4 garlic cloves
1/4 cup organic tahini*
1/4 to 1/3 cup really good olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
juice of one fresh lemon

Put everything in a food processor or blender. I use my Vitamix. Blend on lower speed, scraping down the sides, if necessary. Turn speed up and continue to blend until the hummus is as smooth as you like. If it is too thick, you can add some filtered water, or a little more olive oil. 
Scrape the hummus into a covered container. Let the hummus chill for a couple hours or overnight before eating. Store in the fridge, covered. 

*tahini is easy to make- just blend enough raw or toasted sesame seeds with enough olive oil to make a thin paste. This is often cheaper to make, as well.
