Ingredients:

• 1 Head Fresh Garlic, (about 70 grams or 1 large garlic)
• 1 tsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 3¼ Cans Garbanzo Beans, drained and rinsed, (about 850 grams or 2 cans)

Instructions:

4. Remove the garlic from the oven, the garlic should be soft and you should be able to squeeze it a little. Let the garlic cool for about 5 minutes, just enough for you to be able to handle it. 
5. While you are waiting for the garlic to cool add: garbanzo beans, tahini, lemon juice, 2 tbs olive oil, and water to blender or food processor. 
6. Your garlic should be cool enough to handle. Using you hand squeeze out all of the cloves. Add the garlic to the blender. (If you LOVE garlic, feel free to add more.)
7. Blend everything together for minutes, stopping to scrap sides down as needed. Blend until you have a consistency you like. (For a creamier consistency add more water, 1 tbs at a time until you have a texture you like.)
8. Serve with a dash of paprika, red pepper, and a sprinkle of cilantro on top. Garnish with cucumbers or additional garbanzo beans if you have them. 
9. Serve this Roasted Garlic Hummus with your favorite vegetable, crackers, or pita bread!
