Roasted Garlic and Herb Hummus

The hummus turned out to be very creamy and smooth possibly because I added the garbanzo beans last and stirred the dip several times while blending. I ended up with a tasty and addicting hummus dip I came up with to snack on while watching football with my best friend. We couldn't get enough! For once I ran out of dip before pita bread.
