In Need of a From-scratch Hummus Recipe

This is how I make mine. We all love it.
2 c cooked Garbanzo beans (drain and set juice aside)
1/4 c olive oil (or whatever oil you use)
1/2 lemon, juiced
2 garlic cloves (or 3, depending on your taste)
1/4 c raw sweet onion (if you onion is not sweet, use less or it will overpower your hummus)
1/4 c cilantro (stems and all)
1 tsp cumin, ground
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1/4 c sunflower seeds (optional)-roasted, no salt
Process in food processor until smooth consistency, adding the additional juice until the hummus has the consistency you prefer.
Tweak amounts to your liking.

I love this recipe:

1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed (or 2 cups of fresh)
6 oz. jar of roasted red peppers, rinsed
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup tahini
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
1 jalapeno, seeded, diced
3 tablespoons chopped cilantro leaves
1 teaspoon paprika

Put it all in a food blender & puree! yummmm

I just make mine to taste. I like it best with about 3 cups cooked garbanzo beans, juice from 1-2 lemons, salt to taste and cumin to taste (maybe 1-1/2 tbs). Allrecipes.com might be a good resource. 1 can of garbanzo beans is probably 1.5 cups beans, don't you think?

My husbands aunt makes hers from scratch, she just does it to taste, she does a cute little variety when she makes it - and she makes one that is garlic, one that is cilantro, and one that is sun-dried tomatoes. She said she just adds the garlic and a little salt/pepper to taste, and does the same with the cilantro one and sun-dried tomatoe one. Honestly, once you have had her hummus - you can never eat the store bought kind again..... she is a vegetarian, and makes the best veggie foods~~
