Homemade Hummus

I never really liked hummus until I made it homemade! It was perfect because I could mess with it until I liked it. I guess we like a little more garlic and spice than a lot of people, because I feel like the stuff at the store is so bland, this stuff will knock your socks off! Just experiment a little and find out what you like. 
 
Hummus

1 can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed (Or make your own! You'll need about 2 cups cooked beans)

2 cloves of garlic (more or less, depending on your tolerance for garlic. We like more!)
¼ C olive oil (or less; experiment to see what your prefer)
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
½ tsp. salt
Cummin, to taste
Chili powder, to taste

Put all ingredients in blender or food processor and mix until smooth. Store in the refrigerator
in an airtight container. Serve with pita chips or fresh vegetables or use as a spread on wraps or
sandwiches.
