Zucchini Hummus Recipe

Zucchini Hummus

Zucchini replaces the chickpeas in this hummus and although it might be hard to believe, it tastes like hummus. Really delicious hummus too.
Total Time 10 minutes
Servings: 6
Course: Appetizer, Main Course, Snack
Cuisine: Mediterranean

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large zucchini peeled and diced
  • 3/4 cup tahini
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 1/2 lemons juiced or 1 lemon zested and juiced
  • 4 tsp cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt to start more to taste
  • If using a blender: I TBSP water may be needed to help it along if using a blender instead of a food processor. A food processor is ideal for this if you have one though.

Method
 

  1. Add everything to your food processor or high speed blender and blend until smooth. If you are using a blender, you may need to use your tamper to help get it moving.
  2. Taste and adjust any seasonings you wish.
  3. If the food processor or blender warmed it up a bit, you may want to refrigerate it prior to eating it. It will also thicken in the fridge as well. It tastes great the same day or within a few days.
  4. Serve cold with raw veggies, add to buddha bowls, or dip some crackers in them! Mary's Gone Crackers (Everything) taste extra delicious with this hummus.
