good♥food
yes friends, it is indeed more green food.
i was inspired to make this hummus a few weeks ago when i combined leftover guacamole with leftover hummus while cleaning the fridge. it was yummy, but i knew it could be even more green and fantastic.
herb and avocado hummus
two cans chickpeas, rinsed and drained
2/3 cup tahini
one whole head of garlic, roasted
one or two ripe avocados
zest and juice from one lemon
two handfuls herbs (i used parsley, tarragon, basil and dill)
olive oil
salt and pepper
remove outer paper from garlic, keeping head intact. drizzle with olive oil and wrap in foil. roast at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes or until soft. when cool enough to handle, squeeze garlic from paper into food processer. add the rest of the ingredients except the olive oil. process until smooth, adding olive oil as needed. taste, then season with s&p if needed.
seriously the only thing that could make this better is more avocado.
and goat cheese and arugula and perfectly ripe tomatoes the color of the sun.
super fresh and jam packed with vitamins, protein and the good fat that makes your skin glow and your heart beat happy.
