Parsley Hummus
Ingredients for about 1 1/2 cups of hummus
1 15-oz can chickpeas, drained and the juices reserved
3 cloves of garlic
1 teaspoon salt
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 cup Italian parsley leaves
1/3 cup (80ml) Tahini
1 scallion, roughly chopped
A dash of smoked paprika
Optional for a touch of heat: a dash of cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
The reserved juices from the chickpeas as needed to thin the hummus

Add all ingredients to a food processor. Process until perfectly smooth -- about 30 seconds. Taste carefully for both seasonings and texture, adding more lemon juice, tahini, or the reserved juices from the canned chickpeas as necessary.
