Hops and Robbers Hummus

A simple tasty treat

So it's 2014 and I am beginning to not enjoy writing beer reviews.  They aren't going to disappear from the blog but they will be much more sporadic, probably once a month.  Pub Chat will not stop.  I love that shit.  In place of the beer reviews though I think I will put a bit more of a focus on posting recipes on the stuff I cook.  There will be grilled cheese.  I know you all want more of that.  Lots of beer based recipes.  I have an amazing chili recipe I will post soon.

So for those of you trying to eat a bit healthier because of the new year, well then, this recipe is for you.

One of my favourite dishes to have around the house.  Simple, tasty, and you can use it as a dip, or a spread for sandwiches.  This makes enough for one person and then some, so you should have leftovers for the next day.

Ingredients :

1 can of chick peas
4 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon of peanut butter
4-6oz of Hops and Robbers (depends on how thick you want it)
1 generous squirt of Sriracha (I love this stuff!)

Steps :

1. Open and drain the liquid from the chick peas.  Place in blender.

2. Take garlic and put it through a garlic press into the blender.  You don't have too but this pretty much guarantees you won't get a big chunk of garlic that wasn't blended.

3. A spoonful of peanut butter goes into the blender too.  This is what you want to play around with.  Some like it with more and some less.

4. Pour in the beer and a squirt of Sriracha.

5. Blend. Adding more beer if needed.

6. Put in bowl and eat with veggies, naan bread, or whatever your heart desires.
