Hummus Inspired Veggie Dip W Garlic Pita Chips Recipes

Steps:

• In food processor or blender, place beans, reserved bean liquid, tahini, 1/4 cup oil, the lemon juice, garlic, table salt and pepper. Cover; blend on high speed, stopping blender occasionally to scrape down sides, until smooth. Spoon dip into serving dish. Sprinkle with parsley.
• Heat oven to 375°F. Brush both sides of each pita bread with 1 tablespoon oil. Cut each pita bread into 8 wedges; separate wedges to make 16 wedges for each pita bread. Places wedges, oil sides up, on ungreased cookie sheets. Sprinkle with kosher salt.
• Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until pita chips are crisp and lightly browned. Serve with hummus.

Steps:

• In the bowl of a food processor, add the chickpeas, tahini, oil, lemon juice, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper. Process until smooth and creamy, adding some water to make it the consistency of dip. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more lemon, cumin, salt, and pepper. Scoop the hummus into a bowl. (May be covered and refrigerated at this point for up to 3 days.)
• When ready to serve, garnish with cumin, paprika, and a drizzle of olive oil. Serve with Spiced 'n Baked Pita Chips or crudite.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Cut the pitas into quarters and spread them onto the baking sheet.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, zatar, and sea salt, to taste. Drizzle this mixture over the pita pieces and toss them together with your hands to coat them evenly. Bake them until golden brown and crisp, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove them from the oven and let cool.

Steps:

• Place the garlic, chillies and cilantro in a food processor and whizz until finely chopped.
• Add the garbanzos and whizz until well blended.
• With the motor running, squeeze in the lime juice and drizzle in the olive oil to make a fairly coarse paste.
• Season well to taste and spoon into a serving bowl.
• Meanwhile, mix together the olive oil, garlic and parsley and season.
• Heat one side of the pita breads under a hot broiler for about 1 minute until well browned.
• Turn over the bread, then use a knife to slash the softer surface 4-5 times without cutting through the bread.
• Brush with the herb and oil mixture and return to the broiler until bubbling and toasted (about 1 minute).
• When cool, break into pieces and serve with the hummus.

• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Mix the garlic granules, onion powder, oregano, paprika, salt, and pepper in a small container.
