½ cup olive oil, plus more to reach desired consistency
1 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
½ jar sun-dried tomatoes, plus 2 tbsp. oil from the jar, plus extra diced sun-dried tomatoes for topping
2 tbsp. basill, chiffonade, plus extra for topping
2 tbsp. pine nuts, toasted, for topping
Whole wheat pita bread, sliced into triangles, for dipping
Instructions
In the bowl of a large food processor, add chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice and garlic. Pulse mixture for 30 seconds, then slowly add olive oil to the mixture, while pulsing. Mix another 30 seconds. Season with salt, then scrape down the sides of the food processor.
Add sun dried tomatoes, plus sun-dried tomato oil, and pulse for 30 seconds, or until tomatoes are broken up into pieces. Add basil and pulse until just minced.
If necessary, gradually add a little more oil, if hummus needs to be thinned.
Serve hummus chilled or at room temperature and top with toasted pine nuts, basil, and chopped sun-dried tomatoes.
