Jalapeno & Cilantro Hummus

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

2 19oz cans of chickpeas (drained)
1/2 a cup of olive oil
1/2 a cup of chopped, fresh cilantro
2 jalapeno peppers, chopped & seeded
3 cloves of garlic
3 tablespoon of lemon or lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions:

Place garlic in a food processor and process until minced. Add beans, lime (or lemon) juice and salt. Process into a puree. With the processor running, slowly add olive oil in a steady stream. Add cilantro and jalapenos. Process until mixture thickens and ingredients are completely mixed. If you can't find fresh jalapenos, you can use a small can of pickled ones.

Preparation time: 15 minutes

Excellent. I was running low on olive oil so I added a little less oil and a little more lemon juice, and it seemed to work. I think I might start making this recipe all of the time instead of the regular hummus I usually make.

This was delicious... i did; however, feel the need to modify it. i used 4 jalapenos instead of two and left the seeds/pulpy stuff (where all the heat comes from) in two of them. i still didn't think it was spicy enough but it makes a delicious spread for veggie sandwiches. a much needed change from vegan mayo...

i've made this a couple times now. this time i doubled the cilantro and added one more jalapeno. i also add cumin and some tahini, along with a sprinkling of nutritional yeast

What are we looking at for a serving size here? I have a house of 16 hungry co-op'ers who will be clamoring over this!

A good basic recipe, especially for those of us without tahini.

I added a few things to the basic recipe, because I wanted it to be a lot spicier. I added cayenne, cumin, and some Asian chili sauce. Also, I only used half the amount of garbanzo beans, because my food processor is really small. I used the same amount of everything else, though and it still wasn't really that spicy. Maybe leave in some of the seeds from the jalapenos? That would definitely add some spice.
