Higher Protein Classic Hummus

1 15-oz can garbanzo beans, drained and rinsed well (skins removed)

1 ¼ cups cottage cheese (I only use the @goodculture brand, it is the best, and I like the whole fat one)

⅓ cup tahini

¼ cup lemon juice (this is one juicy lemon)

2 cloves garlic

¼ tsp cumin (not traditional, but HIGHLY recommend)

½ tsp sea salt

2 ice cubes

Drain and rinse the garbanzo well. If you have a few extra minutes, simply remove the skins from the chickpeas as well (not totally necessary but makes the hummus even creamier).
Transfer the chickpeas and remaining ingredients to a food processor, along with the ice cubes.
Process until completely smooth, about 3-4 minutes total. You will need to scrape down the sides of the food processor and process again.
Remove cover, taste and adjust seasonings as needed.
Eat and enjoy! Store leftovers in a covered container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
