From: aharmonyhealing.com

Smoky Orange Hummus is one of my favorite recipes from her
new cookbook Deliciously Holistic by Shelley Alexander

Vegan, Gluten-Free, Nut-Free, Sugar-Free
Makes: around 2 cups

1 (15oz can) organic garbanzo beans
3 Tbsp raw sesame tahini
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 Tbsp filtered water
1/2 tsp grated orange zest
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil (Or Blood orange olive oil)
2 peeled minced garlic cloves
1/2 tsp cumin powder
3/4 tsp unrefined sea salt
1/2 tsp smoked sweet paprika
Fresh ground black pepper to taste

1. Pour beans into a strainer and rinse thoroughly with water. Drain
beans well and place in a food processor with S blade attachment or
in a blender.

2. Add remaining ingredients to food processor or blender and blend
until hummus is smooth and creamy. Stop processor or blender to
scrape down sides if needed.

3. Taste hummus and add more seasoning if needed to taste. If hummus
is too thick, add small amount of purified water 1 tablespoon at a
time to get the right consistency.

4. Enjoy immediately, drizzled with olive oil, or place in covered
container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
