Roasted Tomatillo Hummus

By lovemygolden

This makes a really awesome blend between a salsa and a hummus. It's just as home on a tortilla chip as it is on a pita.

Ingredients

• 1 can chickpeas/garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed
• 5 large tomatillos, husks removed, washed and cut into quarters
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
• 1 to 2 jalapenos, minced (seeds and ribs removed if desired)
• juice 1 lime
• pinch salt

Preparation

Step 1

Place the tomatillos on a baking sheet and broil them on the top rack of your oven until dark and charred. This should take 4 to 5 minutes but watch them closely. Remove and let cool.

Blend everything, including the tomatillos, until nice and smooth. Adjust the seasonings to taste, more salt if necessary. Serve with pitas or even tortillas! Yum!
