blender, if necessary Drip a little olive oil onto it and add a several

AuthorNote: All of my friends eat everything, and are always skeptical of
my vegan diet - however, they also know that I am a badass in the kitech.
So when I had some people over for a feast, I described it as a Lebanese
feast (my family is from Lebanon and the regional cuisine is very
vegan-friends. Save all the lamb, of course).
Anyway, while I was preparing the food, my friends were antsy and hungry,
so I had to think in a hurry. I decided to throw some hummus together with
some ingredients I had in the fridge and it turned out to me incredible!
Now my friends come over all the time, and I make big portions of this
hummus to munch on all week.

ChupaNote: cut the oil to 3 Tablespoon, and add 2 Tablespoons fresh
squeeze lemon juice, and 1 teaspooon ground Aleppo red pepper.
