Try roasting a whole garlic too and then squashing out the garlic puree into the hummus. Its lovely. You will only need 1 clove and you can use the rest of the garlic for other things. You can freeze it in ice cube trays with a little water. Garlic is not ideal for this way of living but its nice to have as a treat every now and then!
