Instructions

For an extra smooth hummus spread, take the time to remove the skins from the chickpeas. If you have neither the time or patience for that, no problem… throw the drained chickpeas in as-is.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine chickpeas, avocado chunks, olive oil, lemon juice, tahini, and garlic. Add a good pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until combined and smooth. I blended my hummus for about 3 minutes. Stop the food processor and taste. Add more salt and pepper and lemon if necessary. Blend for another 5 minutes until light and smooth. Serve topped with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper. Serve with fresh vegetables and pita chips.
