Low Fat Greek Hummus - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas (save liquid) or (15 ounce) can garbanzo beans, drained (save liquid)
1 -2 garlic clove, crushed
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon tahini (optional, but if you do not use, increase yogurt by 1 TBLS) or 1 tablespoon low-fat peanut butter, if you prefer (optional, but if you do not use, increase yogurt by 1 TBLS)
1/2 cup plain yogurt
3/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 pinch cayenne

Preparation

In a food processor combine beans, tahini (if desired), yogurt, garlic, and lemon juice. Blend well. Add salt, cumin and cayenne and blend to a smooth and creamy dip.
If you hummus is too thick, add a little bit of the liquid from the chickpeas - about a teaspoon at time. Other ways to thin out hummus is by using warm water or olive oil also.
