Made by You Monday -- Roasted Garlic Hummus

Dd and I have developed an affinity for hummus. We'll eat with just about anything, which has led us to try making our own. This past weekend we roasted garlic for the first time and made our own hummus. It's quite tasty. We may tweak it a little next time, but for now it's tasty.

1 whole bulb roasted garlic (I did this at 350* for 30 minutes in a covered Pyrex dish)
1 (15 oz.) can organic garbanzo beans, drained, reserving liquid
2 Tablespoons tahini
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
4 to 5 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon sea salt


Remove the garlic cloves from their skins, and add with beans, lemon juice, tahini, and salt in food processor. Process for 10 seconds. Continue adding additional olive oil/bean juice alternately until the hummus reaches your preferred consistency. Keep refrigerated.
