SUPER DELICIOUS AVACADO HUMMUS!!!

Hummus!!! So I really am starting to enjoy hummus. It can take on whatever taste you pair it with so there are a lot of different, really tasty variations that you can do. Tonight, I discovered a new one and it is sooo good. Take 2 cups of chickpeas (I use dry beans, soaked overnight and cooked for 1 1/2 hrs but you can use canned, just be careful of the salt content), 1/2 avacado, 1/4 cup olive oil, 3-4 tablespoons of Chalula hot sauce, 1 clove of garlic, a handful of cilantro and salt and pepper to taste. Blend it in the food processor until it becomes smooth and creamy. You may want to use more or less olive oil, it just depends on what consistency you like. Trust me, it's really good. Maybe add some lime to it if you are going to leave it in the fridge for a few days so the avacado doesn't brown. It is really good dipping carrots or cucumber into it...... YUMMY!!
