JALAPENO AND LIME HUMMUS
With store bought hummus, the quantity is small and prices are high... plus I like to be able to control the ingredients, so I adapted this recipe from ingredient labels. Please note that I use Bertolli Extra Light "Tasting" olive oil for the mild flavor. This hummus will taste significately different if you use Extra Virgin Olive Oil and I don't recommend it... unless you like the strong taste. If you don't have a Kitchen Aide Garlic Press, I highly recommend one... I bought mine at Fry's Electronics... it is easy to use and clean. This Jalapeno and Lime Hummus is great as a dip, on pita or as a sandwich spread.

Tips:
- For the smoothest hummus, use a food processor or high-powered blender.
- If you don't have a food processor or blender, you can mash the chickpeas by hand using a potato masher or fork. Just be sure to mash them until they are very smooth.
- Use fresh lime juice for the best flavor. Bottled lime juice will work in a pinch, but it won't be as good.
- If you like spicy hummus, add more jalapeño peppers. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, coriander, or paprika.
- Serve the hummus with pita bread, vegetable crudités, or crackers.
