Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus--vegan & No Tahini

Submitted by susanratz

"Found this recipe in Taste of Home. Placing here for safe-keeping since I haven't tried yet! I'm thinking it doesn't need the extra olive oil since the sun-dried tomatoes are not drained. When I try it, I will probably leave that out. Todd Schmeling posted this in Taste of Home. Let me know if you try this and like it! :O)"

I made this with a couple variations. First, I did not use any oil...other than what was left on the tomatoes. Second, added two extra cloves of garlic...a tiny bit too much. I probably did not use as much water either...just added until it was the consistency I wanted. All in all, a good recipe. I will be using it again!
