In the Johnson house we try to eat clean and choose healthy snacks. I am always combining complex carbs with protein and humus just happens to be one of my favorite protein snack options. As much as I love humus it can get costly and I'm not completely confident what is in my store bought humus. Since I am using the 21 Day Fix and PiYo programs I want to make certain I stay within the food guidelines. I decided to try out a easy recipe and adjust to my preferences and make kid friendly and husband approved. I found ALL ingredients at our local Publix. Now to make my very own homemade humus!
Homemade Humus |
Ingredients:
2 cans of chickpeas also known as garbanzo beans
2/3 cup Tahini
4 tbsp lemon juice
3 cloves garlic
Dash Garlic Salt
1/2 cup Water
Chickpeas aka Garbanzo beans |
Tahini being added |
Add 1/2 cup water or until mixture is at the consistency you prefer. I enjoy my humus like cake batter so I tend to add more water. Blend together and adjust ingredients to taste. Enjoy!
I was able to refrigerate 2 containers of humus with this recipe. |
I found that I will be saving money and will have more control over what I put into my body by making homemade humus. The Tahini was the most expensive item but I only used a 1/4 of the bottle which allows me to make a ton of humus in the upcoming months. This will be a healthy protein snack and will be 21 Day Fix and PiYo approved. I love eating clean and discovering easy recipes that are kid friendly and husband approved.
