Like you, we’re used to eating our hummus in the form of a smooth dip fashioned from garbanzo beans and a simple selection of seasonings. Here, we present a deconstructed version of the Mediterranean mezze mainstay, Trader Joe’s Greek Chickpeas with Parsley & Cumin. In a can, no less.

Inside the humble can you’ll find ingredients similar to a classic hummus, minus the tahini: chickpeas (aka garbanzo beans), soybean oil, lemon juice, parsley, salt, cumin, garlic powder, and black pepper. There’s nothing complicated here, just good flavor and beans cooked to that ideal texture where they’re firm enough to actually have texture, but soft enough to deliver a delightful eating experience. Try them as a side dish with grilled poultry or fish; spoon them on top of a Greek salad; or make a mezze platter with our Dolmas, Greek Style Eggplant, and some Vegan Tzatziki.
