GARLIC WHITE BEAN BASIL HUMMUS + HOMEMADE TOASTED PITA CHIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Cut each pita into 8 wedges and place wedges in a large bowl. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil or spray with olive oil cooking spray and gently toss to coat. Sprinkle 1 teaspoon salt all over wedges adding other spices if desired; toss again to coat.
• Arrange on an ungreased baking sheet and bake about 8-10 minutes, until pita chips are golden brown. Flip over once halfway through baking. Cool on pans.
• Make your hummus: combine beans, garlic, lemon juice, basil, salt and pepper in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse a couple of times until the mixture looks somewhat chopped.
• Add in the 2 tablespoons of olive oil while the machine is still running. Let process until the mixture is creamy.
• If the mixture appears to be too thick, add in a few teaspoons of water at a time to thin it out. Otherwise, season with additional salt and pepper to your liking and drizzle the top with a tiny bit of olive oil.
