HUMOUS

250g Chick Peas
2 Cloves Garlic

Put all ingredients into a blender and whisk until smooth.

If no blender use elbow grease, no you can't buy elbow grease in the shop, its just the process of mashing and whisking the ingredients into a paste.

You can make your own tasty humous by adding curry powder, bbq sauce, olives, onions,cucumber etc.whatever ingredients you prefer. Why not provide two different flavour humous dips for snacks.
