This healthy vegan hummus is just 124 calories for about 1/4 cup. It's wonderful on sandwiches, in wraps, or as a snack with sliced veggies.Adapted from my "no-oil" low calorie version, this vegan hummus does have a bit oil good for you olive oil. But you can omit it if you like and it will still be wonderful!Special Tip: For a low sodium version simply omit the salt (I like to add a but more lemon in it's place) and get low sodium chickpeas.
Drain the liquid from the can of chickpeas into a bowl or measuring cup.
Add the chickpeas, garlic cloves, lemon juice, tahini, olive oil, and 1/2 of the chickpea liquid to a blender.
Add in a pinch of salt and pepper and blend until smooth.
Taste and add in more salt and pepper as needed.
Special Tip: If you like a creamier or thinner hummus recipe, add in a little more of the chickpea liquid, 1 tablespoon at a time until you have reached your desired consistency.
