Hummus & Pita Triangles (V)

Serves 4 (as an appetizer)

Ingredients: 
  • Pita Triangles:
    • 3 Pita bread rounds
    • Olive oil
    • Salt
  • Hummus:
    • 1 (15oz) can chickpeas, drained (plus about 1/2 the juice from the can)
    • 1 Tablespoon tahini paste
    • Juice of 1/2 a lemon
    • 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
    • 3/4 teaspoon salt
    • 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions: 
  • Pita Triangles:
    • Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Brush both sides of pita bread with olive oil and salt tops lightly.  
    • Cut the bread into wedges (a kitchen scissors works well for this).
    • Place bread on a cookie sheet and cook for 6-10 minutes, flipping half-way through (cooking time will depend on thickness of pita and desired crispness).  
  • Hummus:
    • Mix all ingredients in a blender and mix until creamy.  If too dry, add a little olive oil. 
    • This is best if chilled for about an hour. 
    • Serve with warm pita triangles (or pita chips/vegetables/etc).
