<p>Best hummus EVER! Friends who don't typically like hummus ask for the recipe. You really don't need the entire 1/3 c. oil when processing. I replace the tahini with 1/4 c. fat-free greek yogurt. You will seriously lick the bowl clean!</p> -Lesleigh Baden

I have made this recipe about six times. It has been my food assignment at family gatherings since I brought it the first time for the super bowl. I like to add extra lemon, salt, red pepper, and cumin to it. about an 1/8 tsp red pepper and 2 tsp of cumin. But I always end up adding more to taste.

This is easy and delicious. I also added some lime juice for extra flavor. Will be making this often.

I have already made this recipe 3 times. I didn't have tahini the first time and tried sesame oil, but didn't really care for it. The second time I had tahini and it was very good, but still something wasn't quite right, so the third time I used a 1/4 C. of lime juice instead of the lemon juice and yep it was lick the bowl good!

This was yummy and very fluffy!I didn't use the 1/4 cup olive oil; just sauted the onions in my non-stick skillet. After the onions were done, I deglazed the skillet with about 1 tsp olive oil. Used about 2 Tbsp toasted sesame seeds instead of the tahini.Put it all in my Vitamix blender, not a food processor.Next time I will omit the additional 2 Tbsp of lemon juice, as my family is not too big on lemony hummus.Served with fresh made pita bread and veggies to dip.
