Look, I get it — regular hummus gets pricey when you're buying those tiny containers. This version stretches a can of chickpeas with frozen artichoke hearts (way cheaper than the jarred ones) and Greek yogurt for extra protein.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup
    frozen artichoke hearts, thawed
  • chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • ¼ cup
    plain Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons
    water
  • 2 tablespoons
    lemon juice, fresh or bottled
  • 1 teaspoon
    dried parsley
  • ½ teaspoon
    salt
  • ½ teaspoon
    garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon
    chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon
    ground cumin
  • ¼ teaspoon
    paprika
  • ⅛ teaspoon
    cayenne pepper

Preparation

  1. Toss everything into your food processor and blend until smooth, adding more water a tablespoon at a time if it's too thick. (Store-brand Greek yogurt works perfectly here — save your money for the good olive oil drizzle on top.)

  2. 2 hrs

    Transfer to the fridge and let it sit for at least 2 hours so all those spices can get acquainted.

  3. Taste and adjust seasoning before serving — you might want more lemon juice or salt depending on your chickpeas.

Notes

Cost per serving comes out to roughly $0.75, versus $4+ for the fancy stuff at the store. Fresh parsley is great if you've got it, but dried works fine and doesn't go bad in your fridge drawer. Keeps for up to a week covered.
