======================================================= ============== ==== == Combine all the ingredients in a food processor. Process until the mixture is smooth and creamy and no lumps remain, scraping sown the sides of the bowl as needed. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until ready to use. Note: The traditional name for this is hummus, and you can make yours truly Middle Eastern by adding tahini (ground sesame seeds), or, if you want an Italian-style hummus, add 1 teaspoon dried basil.
