I don't think this one has been posted yet, I had some of this from a catering company at a local open house... it was YUMMY!
Artichoke Hummus
Servings 8
Ingredients:
1 (15 oz. can) garbanzo beans
1/2 cup canned artichoke hearts
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
Pita bread wedges or crackers for dipping
Directions:
In bowl of food processor, combine garbanzo beans, artichoke hearts, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper. Process until mixture is smooth. Lightly drizzle olive oil into bean mixture. Process until combined. Cover and chill hummus for 1 hour to allow flavors to blend. Serve with pita wedges or crackers.
For Pita Bread Wedges - Cut pita bread into wedges. Brush bread with olive oil or spray with cooking spray like Pam. Bake in a 400°F oven for 10-12 minutes or until lightly crisp.

This does sound yummy. My husband is the designated hummus maker in the family - even as I write, he's got an broiled eggplant cooling on the counter so he can make Heather's Smoky Eggplant Hummus for lunch tomorrow - so I'm going to sweet talk him into making this for me soon.

Bloody hell that sounds fab!
I am a hummus fiend, and new varieties of hummus excite me like nothing else.

I made this yesterday and while it is good, I was wondering how do you get it to be really smooth. Mine still has somewhat of a gritty texture to it. A friend of mine said that in orginal hummus tahini(sp?) is used and that makes it smoother. Is that IBS safe? I did use some of the liquid from the beans to try and smooth it out more. Any suggestions???

I make Easy Hummus sometimes which doesn't contain tahini and never have a gritty texture. Maybe it's the artichokes? 
I rinse my garbanzos also and don't use reserved liquid. I think it makes it potentially more gassy. (If you rinse them, did you ever see the bubbles from it? I don't need help putting bubbles in me! LOL) It is kinda thick though. I had an idea to add a little chicken broth to it to help thin it out rather than the bean liquid, but haven't tried that idea yet.

The are insoluble, but pureeing them and having it with soluble (from garbanzo beans and crackers/pita bread) makes it more tolerable.

Any suggestions??? Yes, tahini is safe... from my understanding it is kind of like peanut butter.... maybe I should get some. I just bought the rest of the stuff to make it.... I will split it in half and add some to one and not to the other and play with it... I'll let ya know.

about 3 Tablespoons of liquid from the beans and about 1 Tablespoon of liquid from the artichoke hearts and made it in a blender. It came out smooth as silk and wonderful. In fact, the only problem with it is that it's so good I'm afraid I ate way too much of it.

Joe used Progresso Artichoke Hearts and Goya Chick Peas (Garbanzos).
Joe said it only took 2 of the Artichoke Hearts to make the amount called for in the recipe, so we still have enough left to make this a couple more times. Yum!
Oh, and we had it on pita just heated up in the oven, not made into crisps.

I made your artichoke hummus with tahini and it came out good. Maybe too garlicky for me, but I think I put too much garlic in it. I can't remember if your recipe called for it or how much. I bought some sun dried tomatoes at the store that I am going to add next time I make it.

Yup tahini has about the same grams of fat/calories are peanut butter. So if you can do pb you'd probably be safe with tahini. Similar stuff - like pb or almond butter only with sesame seeds. I have a recipe for hummus with it but I can't really eat pb so I haven't tried it. I have one without it too and it's yummy and smooth!

OO, I was wondering about artichokes - are they okay steamed? I am so excited to try this recipe as i could live on hummus - i use it on sandwiches instead of mayo or other condiments. It's fabulous with other veggies like mushrooms and cucumber slices ( seeds removed).

I put about 1.5 tablespoons of tahini in it. I think I will limit the garlic next time. Not that I don't LOVE garlic, but it doesn't always love me. I'm going to make it with the sun dried tomatoes this weekend, I'll let you know how it turns out. Great---now I'm hungry for it!

We made this again and Joe cut the oil down to 1 Tablespoon and added an additional Tablespoon of artichoke liquid (so we're now up to 5 Tablespoons of bean and artichoke liquid). The hummus was a little less firm, but it still tasted wonderful.

We made this for lunch today for the first time in a long time. It had been so long, we forgot we were supposed to save the liquid from draining the beans to add in when blending. So Joe still reduced the oil down to 1 Tablespoon and added 2 Tablespoons of artichoke liquid, but he used 3 Tablespoons of chicken broth also.
We had it with warmed pitas cut in 6ths. It was fabulous!
