1 can Garbanzo Beans (reserve liquid)
1/4 cup tahini
1/4 cup bean juice
2 Tbs Olive oil

1/2 cup of roasted Hatch Chiles, depending on heat

Directions

1

Fire up the food processor and drop in ingredients in order.\I've tried to use less Olive oil and tahini to trim calories, and I use more bean juice to get the desired consistancy. Start tasting after the pine nuts, if you have used garlic/onion salt, you may not want any extra salt. I also add half the lemon juice, and then start tasting, I don't like hummus too lemony, but many restaurants serve a very lemony base hummus.

I make my own roasted chiles, and leave much of the innards intact, thus I have a lot of heat. add the chiles a little ata time until you reach your pain limit.
