    1. Great question Tina,
      This makes roughly 3 cups. A serving size is approximately 2-4 tablespoons. We updated the recipe to be more clear. Thank you so much!

        1. Thanks for the question!
          This hummus should last about 7 days in the refrigerator.
          Good luck ?

    1. Hi Cat,
      Thanks for your comment, but I hope you will get a chance to read the recipe. Canned chickpeas that are rinsed and drained have a low FODMAP serving of about 1/4 cup or 42g. One 15 ounce can chickpeas, rinsed and drained will yield about 246 g of chickpeas. That is about 6 servings, while the recipe will have 16 servings.
      Do not substitute fresh chickpeas/garbanzo beans (raw or cooked).
      For the low-FODMAP diet, portion size is KEY!
      Hope that helps!
