A Flavorful RAW Hummus With a Kick
I love hummus, but I’m not down with sprouting garbanzos to make a raw version because it doesn’t come out very tasty. This hummus is made with zucchini as the base. It works perfectly, comes out creamy, smooth, and is absolutely addictive. Mix up the flavors and try a basil & garlic version too. If your veggies have a high water content you may need to add a little extra sesame seeds.
½ cup sesame seeds 1 zucchini, peeled ½ cup tahini 2 tablespoons olive oil 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon salt 1 large clove of garlic ½ sweet red pepper dash of red chili flakes or Sriacha if you like a kick
Peel the zucchini. Put the sesame seeds in the Vita-Mix and blend until nearly powdered. Add remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Serve with pita bread, flax crackers, or veggies.
