This was very good, though I added 4 heads of roasted garlic. I was leery to add full amount of rosemary but think I would try closer to full amount. It makes a good size amount, probably 6-8 cups total. Will make again.
White Bean and Roasted Garlic Hummus
Since this variation calls for roasted garlic, you can just omit the raw crushed garlic cloves from the Traditional Hummus. Serve with Spicy Baked Pita Chips.
Yield: 5 cups (serving size: about 2 1/2 tablespoons)
