Tips:
- For a creamier hummus, use canned chickpeas instead of dried chickpeas. Canned chickpeas are already cooked, so you don't have to worry about soaking and cooking them yourself.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the chickpeas by hand using a potato masher or fork. Just make sure to mash them until they are very smooth.
- To make the hummus spicier, add more jalapeño pepper. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, paprika, or garlic powder.
- Serve the hummus with pita bread, crackers, or vegetables. You can also use it as a sandwich spread or dip.
Conclusion:
Low-fat cilantro jalapeño hummus is a delicious and healthy snack or appetizer. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful snack, give this recipe a try!
