Looking for a snack made almost entirely from pantry staples? This Fresh & Quick Garlic Hummus is perfect! Made with canned chickpeas, it makes an inexpensive, and nutritious snack. Serve it on English muffins, toast, with veggie sticks or with chips.
This recipe costs less than $3 to make for one batch making it a budget-friendly snack!
I recently made a batch of garlic hummus and enjoyed it on a toasted English Muffin. It was super tasty and complemented the toasted bread perfectly.
Directions:
Add chickpeas, garlic cloves, and 3/4 of your oil to your food processor. Also, mix in the salt, lemon juice, and half the red pepper. Blend until smooth. If the mixture is too thick add in a little of the extra chickpeas juices. I ended up using about 2 tablespoons of mine.
Once blended, add to a serving dish and swirl the mixture. Top with left over oil, remaining crushed red pepper, and fresh parsley. Enjoy with pita, veggies stick, or on a BAYS toasted English Muffin.

We all love hummus but I usually buy it made. I will use this recipe and try to make it on my own. Those little pizzas on English muffins are sure to e every kids favorite.
That looks so good! Hummus is probably my most favorite way to snack with chips. I definitely need to try it on an English muffin. It looks so good.
Gosh this sounds good. I buy those English muffins all the time. I need to try the English muffin garlic bread recipe ASAP.
We make English Muffin Garlic Bread at least once a week at our house. I will have to give this Hummus recipe a try this weekend. I am sure it will be a bog hit.
