Edamame Hummus

This simple hummus recipe is a great alternative to using chickpeas (garbanzo beans) and the color is lovely too!

The recipe is adapted from Choosing Chia and was a big hit at the 2017 Menu for Change potluck party, making it into that year’s recipe book.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 cups shelled edamame
• 1/3 cup water
• 1/3 cup tahini
• 2 Tbsp olive oil
• Juice of 1 lemon
• 2 garlic cloves
• 1/2 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper

Directions:

1. If you are using frozen edamame, boil in medium pot for 3-4 minutes, strain.
2. In food processor add edamame, water, tahini, olive oil, and puree for 2 minutes.
3. Next add lemon juice, garlic, cumin, salt, pepper, and puree again for 4-5 minutes.
4. Adjust taste.
5. Store in airtight container in fridge for up to 2 weeks.
