1 (14.5 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
2 rounded tablespoons tahini sesame paste, found in both dairy and dry specialty foods sections
A drizzle extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon crushed pepper flakes
1 teaspoon (1/3 palm full) ground cumin
1 teaspoon (1/3 palm full) ground coriander

Coarse salt
1/2 lemon, juiced
Pita breads, grilled and cut into wedges for dipping

OK....I so did not make this, I stole it from Rachel Ray, I do plan on making it for Easter tho, this is a spicy one (yay) and then I will make a non-spicy one....it will truely be a test to see how much I rock at hummus. Im planning on making it from scratch. I have to make 2 kinds. There is like a spinache one I would like to try...hmmm...its all about the hummus in 2008....im cheesy...
