I bought the bread sticks in the photo above, and thought why have I bothered even buying these, I have nothing to dip them into. It turns out it’s not hard to make hummus and it’s really quick too, so why not give it a go!

Ingredients

• 400g tin of chickpeas (plus half the liquid the chickpeas are in, you can throw the rest away)
• 2 tsp of tahini paste
• 1 clove of garlic (not going to lie, couldn’t taste this, maybe go ahead and add some more)
• Juice of half a lemon
• Paprika and parsley for decoration and colour
• 3 tbsp of olive oil
• 1/2 tsp of salt

Method

1. First of all, take a few chickpeas out if you’re going for the arty decor at the end
2. Then literally throw everything into the blender, except the decorative spices and herbs and blend until smooth
3. Decorate with a sprinkle of paprika and parsley and the few chickpeas you saved from getting crushed on top
4. Enjoy with your mini gluten-free bread sticks and a beer, you deserve it, that was hard work
