This was really good (and cheap!). I used an old tip to blend the tahini with the lemon juice first to make a cream sauce, then add the other ingredients, than the spinach. I also used homemade tahini. Love it!

I have never made hummus before. Had no idea it would be so easy. Kicked up the garlic and lemon a bit but otherwise made as directed. thanks so much for sharing. Made for ZWT6 Seasoned Sailor and his Sassy Sirens.

Delicious recipe and ever so easy to prepare! I don't ever purchase hummus in the store prepared. It is so simple to make and tastes so much better when you prepare it fresh!! I made exactly 1/2 this recipe for only the two of us, using fresh baby spinach leaves and dried parsley. I served with organic blue corn tortilla & pretzel chips. Thanks again, *Parsley*, for another delicious recipe!!

I thought this was a great idea and tagged it because I love spinach and lemon together and a smart idea to hide it in some hummus. I used fresh baby leaf spinach and really think that frozen spinach is best left for cooking. Will make again. Thank you Parsley. Made for ZWT 6 for Looney Spoon Phoodies.

About the only change I made here was to use 6 rather large cloves of garlic & a bit more of the lemon juice, & ended up with a really delicious spread! Thanks for sharing the recipe! [Made & reviewed while touring the Middle East with ZWT6]
