Hummus is a dip. It is prepared from cooked and mashed chickpeas or any other type of beans. Depending on your hummus recipe, you can combine the chickpeas with tahini, lemon juice, garlic, or salt.

Homemade hummus is incredibly simple to make. It does not have an unusual after taste like the ones bought from the stores. It is also fresh .You can add more spices and customize it to your taste. To make the best hummus, always go for quality ingredients.

Canned chickpeas have a delicate flavor, and you can easily combine it with other foods to come up with a unique flavor of your choice. They are usually pre-cooked.  When you want to use the canned chickpeas, you need to drain any liquid and rinse them with a lot of cold water. Rinsing will help reduce the sodium content common to most canned foods.

If you have time, you may as well go for the dried chickpeas; soak and then pre cook before using them as an ingredient for your hummus,

Place the cooked beans in a food processor or blender and add the rest of the ingredients. Process to a smooth paste. If the mixture is too thick, add some water until you get the desired consistency.

Fresh beets are sweet and full of flavor. They have a tender texture. They are a versatile vegetable. You can serve beets in salads, as a side dish, and in beverages for additional color and flavor. Beets are low in calories, are fat and cholesterol free, and a good source of folate.
