So, what is more mediterranean than hummus? That is one of the staples that come to my mind. And the great thing is that you can ALWAYS have the ingredients on hand, and they are cheap!
Ingredients:
Garbanzo Beans - 1 can
Garlic - 3 cloves
Olive Oil - 3 to 4 Tbsp.
Salt - to taste
Pepper - to taste
Method:
This is so easy and you either love it or hate. Personally, I love it! First, you grind up the garbanzos and garlic in a food processor. If you have a blender, you want to add the olive oil at the beginning also. Back to the food processor, you can just add olive oil until it has the consistency you desire. Then just add salt and pepper to taste. I prefer the Kosher Salt and white pepper for this recipe.

A few alternatives to keep in mind ... used roasted garlic, add lime or lemon juice, add a pinch of cumin. It's fun to experiment and come up with new tastes for this hearty snack!
There you go ... does it get any easier than that? You can whip this up in 5 minutes, if you like it cold make it ahead of time, so it has time to cool down. This is the perfect amount for an average family, and then some. If you have a larger gathering, just double or triple everything.
Enjoy - go get some pita chips or crusty bread - very satisfying and tasty treat!
