Best Israeli Hummus

Submitted by LI-Ray

"Having been to Israel numerous times and having tried hummus all over the country, I find this hummus recipe pretty close to what you would find there. To save time, I use canned garbanzo beans, but friends who use the same recipe tell me that the dried beans are the way to go."

Topped with paprika, dill, and parsley. So perfect for an easy dinner spread with pita, carrot sticks, olives, and feta.

I think my review didn't go in! Easiest and tastiest hummus recipe I've found the net. Changed servings to 2.5 to quarter recipe for one can of chickpeas.
