Chicken Hummus

The following is a recipe that I had for chicken hummus from a spa that I go to every year. You would have to scale it way back to be on plan, because a serving of garbanzo beans is 1/4 cup.

8 oz CHICKEN BREAST, COOKED
2 C GARBANZO BEANS, COOKED
4 GARLIC SEGMENTS
2 T OLIVE OIL
1/4 C WATER
1/4 C FRESH CILANTRO, MINCED
1/4 C FRESH LEMON JUICE

pinch SALT

Place garbanzo beans, salt, garlic, olive oil and lemon juice in food processor.

Puree till smooth, (add a little water, if necessary, till reaching the consistency of peanut butter).

Add cilantro, and diced chicken. Mix and chill till ready to serve.

Tip: Serve very cold for optimum flavor.
