Edamame Hummus & Pita Chips


Tried making some edamame hummus to go along with my pita chips. Technically, I can't call this a "hummus" for that means "chickpeas" but nowadays if it resembles hummus in texture and is a dip, I think we get away with it. ^_^
*
This was real easy to make, just throw in your food processor or blender:
*
- 1.5 cups cooked, shelled edamame
-3T lemon juice
-1 garlic clove, minced
-1/4-1/2 c water
-1t salt
-2T olive oil
*
You can add in parsley, cumin, ground coriander, sesame oil, or tahini to your liking but I left mine plain.
*
Made two kinds of pita chips, one with garlic salt and italian seasoning and the other one with pizza seasoning. Brush both sides with olive or vegetable oil, sprinkle on seasonings, and bake 10-12 minutes in a 350*F over, turning them over halfway. A simple, tasty, and healthy snack!
