If you are looking for a good food processor, I recommend the  Cuisinart DFP-14BCNY 14-Cup Food Processor, Brushed Stainless Steel.I researched and researched for the best food processor after hating my last three processors. This one is PERFECT! It processes the food perfectly. It is powerful, sturdy, and well built. The blades meet the edges so little tiny pieces of food do not get stuck or missed. And it has a large food feed tube. It is one of my favorite appliances in the kitchen.

Why is hummus healthy?

Hummus is packed with power ingredients that does your body good.

Garbanzo beans are a high source of protein and fiber. One cup has 15 grams of protein and 12.5 grams of fiber!

This recipe adds cilantro which is a great source for antioxidants. It is also known to lower cholesterol and blood sugar levels.

The added jalapenos and limes in this recipe are a rich source for vitamin c.

When you whip this tasty dip together, you can feel good about it!

no tahini hummus recipe

I don't use tahini in this hummus recipe.

I only like tahini in some hummus flavors. In this recipe, it would overpower the flavors.

This is perfect for those who do not like tahini or who want to save a little extra calories in their snacking. It is very delicious either way!
