Snacks and Leftovers

I came up with this recipe while at work because I ran out of snacks and I was really hungry and craving hummus. This is what I do instead of homework...

Spinach Hummus:

1 can of Chickpeas

½ Small Onion

Olive Oil

Handful of Spinach

Salt

Pepper

Cumin

Start by sautéing the onions in some olive oil. Then add spinach and toss until wilted and keep it to the side. 

Drain the can of chickpeas but reserve the liquid; you’ll need some of it to thin out the hummus. I used a Magic Bullet, but a food processor will work just as well. Combine everything in the bullet, along with about 2 tablespoons of the liquid and let it pulse until smooth, adding more liquid as needed. 

Season with salt, pepper and cumin and stir all together until it is seasoned to your liking.

Tada! All done, wasn’t that easy? Now you’ll never buy another $4.00 container of hummus again!

Next think I know, I'm running out of chips, but a stroke of brilliance told me to get out a leftover black bean burger and make another wrap. A whole wheat tortilla, a sprinkle of cheese, burger patty, sliced green peppers and a dollop (or 3) or hummus and beauty has been made. 

Happy Eating!
