Pure Hummus
When I first learned how to make my own hummus, I could not believe how easy and fast it was. With just a few simple tricks, you can make a big bowl of creamy smooth hummus that is much better than anything found at the store. Plus that big bowl costs about $1 - instead of the $5 for the small supermarket container.
Scoop your hummus with mini red-yellow-orange sweet peppers, cucumber slices, and toasted pita triangles.
Add PURE UNFLAVORED WHEY PROTEIN ISOLATE for a big boost of protein - 1/4 cup PURE adds 40 grams clean protein and won't change the flavor or texture of your delicious hummus.

Add the lemon juice and tahini to the food processor and process until thick and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down the sides, add the garlic, salt and cumin - process an additional 1 minute. Add 1/2 of the chickpeas to the mixture in food processor and process until nearly smooth, 2 to 3 minutes. Scrape down sides; add the remaining chickpeas and the PURE - process until silky smooth, adding 2 to 3 tablespoons warm water, a little at a time, to bring hummus to the desired consistency. Scrape into a bowl, make a shallow well in the center, drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with paprika.
