Play around to see what you find the tastiest.<div><br /></div><div>Juice of a fresh lemon</div><div>Good quality olive oil (this should be a staple in everyone kitchen, we go through a big bottle a month at our house)</div><div>Dried or fresh herbs of your choice (oregano is a good place to start)</div><div>1 finely diced garlic glove </div><div>Raw honey or Agave syrup </div><div>Salt and pepper</div><div><br /></div><div>The rule of thumb for salad dressing is one part acid to two parts oil. </div><div>The acid I use at home is most often fresh lemon. It gives my salad a crisp fresh flavor. Feel free to use any vinegar that you have around the house. (Remember though that white vinegar is not a good choice. It is best used as a cleaning product.) The amount that you use depends on the amount of dressing you want to make. It keeps quite well in the fridge for up to a week.</div><div>Add the corresponding amount of olive oil, the diced garlic, and a generous pinch of herbs.</div><div>Mix well. Sweeten to taste with the raw honey or agave syrup (these can be omitted if needed but do help to balance the acidity of the lemon or vinegar). Salt and pepper to taste. </div><div>Top your favorite salad, toss and dig in!</div>0hnpodcast@gmail.com (Karolina and Ingrid)http://healthandnutritionpodcast.blogspot.com/2009/01/hummus-recipe.htmlSun, 4 Jan 2009 11:13:00 -0800tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5139456723603713687.post-777603223993368193As promised here is my famous, easy Hummus recipe. <div><br /></div><div>1 can of chick peas drained (reserve the liquid)</div><div>1 large garlic clove</div><div>Tahini (use a good quality, preferably organic brand)</div><div>Good quality olive oil</div><div>1 fresh  whole lemon juiced </div><div>Salt and pepper</div><div><br /></div><div>Pour the chick peas into the bowl of a large food processor with steel blade attached.</div><div>Add the garlic clove, a tablespoon of tahini and a quarter cup of the liquid reserved from the can of chick peas.<br /></div><div>Blend on high until mixture is smooth and the consistency of a thick pancake batter.</div><div>If it is too pasty add more liquid.</div><div>Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.</div><div>Add the lemon juice to taste with the salt and pepper.</div><div><br /></div><div>I prefer some zing to my hummus so I add a lot of lemon.
