Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (15 ounces) canned chickpeas, drained and rinsed
- 0.25 cup tahini
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 0.5 cup fresh parsley
- 0.5 cup fresh cilantro
- 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon salt

- 3 tablespoons water
Instructions
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, spinach, parsley, cilantro, basil, lemon juice, minced garlic, olive oil, ground cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Pulse the mixture a few times to begin breaking down the ingredients.
With the food processor running, slowly drizzle in the water, one tablespoon at a time, until the hummus reaches your desired consistency. You can add more water if needed.
Stop the food processor periodically to scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
Taste the hummus and adjust the seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or lemon juice as desired.
Transfer the Green Goddess Hummus to a serving bowl and garnish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of chopped herbs, if desired.
Serve immediately with pita bread, vegetable sticks, or crackers, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
