Ingredients
- 2 cups Fresh spinach leaves

- 2 tablespoons Fresh lemon juice
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper

Directions
Step 1
Wash and dry the fresh spinach leaves thoroughly.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, sauté the spinach leaves with 1 tablespoon of water (if needed) just until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3
In a food processor, combine the sautéed spinach, chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Step 4
Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Step 5
While blending, gradually add 1 tablespoon of cold water at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Step 6
Taste and adjust seasoning, adding more salt or lemon juice if needed.
Step 7
Transfer the spinach hummus to a serving bowl and drizzle with a little extra olive oil, if desired.
Step 8
Serve immediately with fresh vegetable sticks, pita chips, or crackers. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
