Notes

This green chickpea hummus is thick. If you want to thin or smooth it out, add a tablespoon more of oil.
Though this recipe uses kale, there's nothing to say you can't switch up the greens. Spinach, basil, or fresh parsley work too.
Both canned or raw chickpeas will work for the hummus. However, if using raw, make sure to soak and cook them fully first.
The longer you blend the hummus the smoother it will be. To thin it further, add more olive oil in 1 tablespoon at a time.
Makes 1.5 cups of hummus. The serving size is ¼ cup.
