I discovered how easy it is to make hummus at home, early last year. My husband loves my hummus so much, he won’t even let me come anywhere close to the store bought ones at the grocery isle. He recently perfected falafel and it’s a great way for both of us to cook together on a weekly bases. Pick up a few cans of garbanzo beans on your next grocery haul and try this recipe, you will never go back to store bought again.
