Aquafaba, the liquid from a can of chickpeas, makes this healthy dip extra smooth and creamy. We reserve 1/4 cup of the liquid from a can of no-salt-added chickpeas and add it to the food processor with the chickpeas and remaining ingredients. The key is to puree all the ingredients in the food processor until smooth, which will take 2 to 3 minutes. When you run the food processor longer, you incorporate more air into the hummus, making it creamier. What to Serve with Garlic Hummus Serve garlic hummus with veggie chips, pita chips or crudités. Add garlic hummus to a veggie sandwich, to meal-prep lunch bowls or top it with slow-roasted vegetables. This versatile dip can be used as a salad dressing, as a topping for pizza and can even be added to pasta.
