    The 3-star rating if for the recipe as is. After the following changes, we would rate it 5 stars.
    We roasted the red pepper and removed the skin. However, we found the flavor of the kalamata olives to be very overpowering. To fix this, we added an extra half of a red pepper (raw, not roasted), 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt, 1 extra tablespoon of lemon juice, 1 extra tablespoon of tahini, and 1 extra tablespoon of parsley. It was fine after these additions... and this resulted in more hummus :-)

I thought it was the best hummus I have ever had the pleasure to have tasted And I made it!The only thing I did to change it was pour boiling water on my chick peas a couple of times, stir it around a bit to get the skin like covering off the peas The skin coverings float to the top It may take a wee bit more time, but it allows for a more creamier hummus Again, thank you!
