Hummus, Hummous- a Delicious Recipe Either Way!

Tallbirdmace's Note:

Since moving from London to Texas I have missed hummus from home, and have found the store hummus here tastes rather funky. So after much tweaking this is the closest recipe I have found and it is SOOOOOO quick and easy.

The previous reader must have never had hummous. This is the way most of my family members like it, with less tahini than other recipes. I do add more lemon but that is just the way we like it.
