Kale Harissa Hummus

This is the perfect snack and surprisingly easy to make. I had bunches of kale to use up and thought, why not?

I prefer to boil the chickpeas and remove the skin. It gives a creamier texture to hummus the hummus when the chickpeas are peeled. This is garlicky perfection with a hint of spice; perfect for crackers, pita chips or veggies.

If your food processor is a temperamental git like mine, you can finish this in the blender.

In the words of Justin Timberlake, "We eats" at our house. My husband has some funky food issues and I've gone to making more and more homemade stuff. I've always had hummus in the fridge but this was my first foray into making my own. Now that I know how easy it is, I'm never going back to store bought again.
