Hot for Hummus image

This is the best hummus recipe I have come across. I always omit the harissa, since we don't like hot hummus but it would probably be tasty with the harissa as well! I always use either organic chickpeas or Bush's chickpeas. Store brands often cause the hummus to taste funny so I avoid them. The recipe came from Vegan Planet.
