Hearty Homemade Hummus

Serves 6
1 1/2 cups cooked garbanzo beans, or 1 15-ounce can
4 ounces silken tofu, well-drained
1/4 cup parsley, chopped
5 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 to 2 cloves fresh garlic
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/3 cup sesame tahini
1 1/2 tsp sea salt*
Cumin and paprika to taste
Blend all ingredients in a food processor until desired consistency is achieved. Garnish with a dash of paprika on top. Serve warm or chilled.
* Allergy notes: People following a corn-free diet should avoid iodized salt since it contains dextrose, which should be avoided by those allergic to corn.
