HUMMUS (SUN-DRIED TOMATOES)
I'm not sure if another recipe like this is on the site, but i am famous for it. It has made even the pickiest eaters gobble it down. My family will never eat storebought hummus again. I make a single serving of this recipe because all i have is a mini food processor/ chopper, but it can easily be doubled and tripled. Add more or less water as desired...it depends how thick you want the recipe. If making ahead of time make a little thinner since it loses a little water overnight. Also, if you use sundried tomatoes that aren't canned in oil, add a teaspoon of your favorite kind, since it makes a creamier texture. I prefer to use the oil in the jar to flavor the recipe. That's enough from me....enjoy!
