Hummus 3 ways

Hummus 3 ways

Once you make your own you’ll never get store bought again. Hummus is the kind of dip I could literally eat all year round. Perfect for nachos as a dip, sandwiches & wraps as a spread or any of your favourite snacks. It’s great for gut health and packed with feel good nutrients like iron, folate, phosphorus and B vitamins.

Super easy and fast you’ll be able to whip up 3 batches in no time. All you’ll need is a food processor, chickpeas, garlic, paprika, tahini, salt, lemon, olive oil and pepper.

For the roasted beetroot and butternut roast them at the same time in foil parcels then let cool before blending. Alternatively overnight if you can.

Jemutai's TIPS

Keep the hummus in an air tight container in the fridge for up to a week. You can also freeze the hummus then just thaw as needed. I love using it as a spread in place of butter in my sandwiches and wraps.
