Steps:

To the bowl of a food processor or high-powered blender, add the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Pulse, adding the liquid from the beans as needed to keep things moving, until the hummus is very smooth.
Add the olives and pulse until chopped. I like to whirr them almost completely in; you may prefer a chunkier hummus. Taste and add additional salt if desired.
Scoop into a serving bowl and top with additional sliced olives, a sprinkle of smoked paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil, if desired.
Keeps refrigerated in an airtight container for 3-4 days.

GREEN GODDESS HUMMUS

I invented this when I was looking for a way to use up some fresh spinach I had. It tastes great and is a good way of getting some extra greens into your diet! Serve it as a dip with fresh veggies and pita wedges.

BLACK OLIVE HUMMUS

This is a sesame-free hummus that I make for a friend with allergies. It is a huge hit. You can either use pitted kalamata olives, or for a more intense flavor, you can buy black olive paste at most mediterranean groceries. Marmarabirlik salted black olive paste is my favorite.
