Notes
Instead of cooking your own dry chickpeas, use a can of chickpeas. Just be sure to rinse canned chickpeas, or any beans that you are using, well under cool water before adding them to your recipe.
If you don't have a food processor, you can make this hummus recipe in a blender or with an immersion blender.
