Ingredients
2 Cups of Chickpeas, drained with the liquid set aside 4 Garlic Cloves minced or pureed 2 Tablespoons Tahini3 Tablespoons of fresh lemon juice * 100% lemon is a great substitute. 2 Tablespoons of the liquid from the chickpeas 8 Dashes of hot sauce of your choice. I prefer Tabanero. *This is only for flavor. This small amount will NOT make the recipe spicy. Add more to your taste. 1 Teaspoon of salt - or salt to taste.
Directions
We use a NutriBullet but any food processor is fine! Simply add all ingredients to the food processor and pulse until the desired texture is achieved. Additional lemon juice, salt or hot sauce can be added to adjust the recipe to your preference.

If you are using a Magic Bullet add all ingredients to the cup and only use 1/2 the chickpeas until they are blended. Then, add the second 1/2 of the chickpeas and control the texture by pulsing, adding additional lemon juice if necessary.
