Hummus is definitely a staple food in my diet. Especially in the heat of the summer, there's nothing easier than grabbing some veggies and hummus when you're on the go. This little twist on one of my favorite foods is here to stay. Edamame hummus is even easier to make than traditional hummus. Plus, it's super nutritious. Soy beans {or edamame} contain higher levels of vitamins and minerals than chickpeas, including folate and manganese. Edamame is also considered a whole protein source, which means they provide all essential amino acids that your body needs. Spread this hummus on toast, sweet potato slices, or enjoy as your new favorite dip. What you'll need: 1 1/2 cup fresh or frozen edamame 1/4 cup water 2 tbsp @chosenfoods avocado oil 1/2 tsp pink salt 1/2 tsp black pepper 1 tsp garlic powder or one garlic clove 1/2 tsp cumin zest and juice of one lemon Optional: substitute avocado oil for 1/2 avocado a few dashes of crushed red pepper What you'll need to do: 1. If the edamame is frozen, cook in boiling water for about 4 minutes. 2. Drain and add cooked edamame to a food processor with the "S" blade. 3. Add all other ingredients and blend until smooth and creamy. 4. Season to taste. Topped mine off with a little black pepper and a drizzle of avo oil.
Enjoy. X Molly
