Hummus

can of garbonzo beans/chick peas
chopped garlic
a little lemon juice
tahini (sesame seed 'spread')
olive oil

you could also do a little dill or red pepper

put all in food processor...

Almost same as above

1 small can of chick peas
1/3 c tahini
juice of 1 lemon
1 clove chopped garlic
olive oil (add a little @ a time until you get to right consistency)
few dashes of cumin
and I like 1 jalapeno in mine too for spice (or, if you are daring a habanero).

throw it all in the food processor and you're good to go.

edited to say- you can also make baba ghanoush with this recipe. .. just roast a whole eggplant in the oven (poke holes in it w. the fork) @ 450 degrees for 35-40 minutes... then substitute roasted eggplant for the chick peas.

once, for the OLIVE LOVERS in my family, I add sliced up olives to the hummus and it was a hit. I did one plain and one with olives.

YUMMMMMMMM
