Most raw food hummus recipes use sprouted garbanzo beans or nuts, but this raw hummus uses zucchini, instead. Before trying this adaptation, I'd completely given up on a raw and living hummus, as my several other attempts using everything from fermented sunflower seed cheese to cashews just weren't all that great. But this raw hummus recipe using zucchini is a keeper! Make some easy raw flax crackers to use as dippers for your raw hummus, or just use some chopped veggies. I like using celery, snow peas and red bell peppers. Yum! Vegetarian, vegan, raw and gluten-free.
Ingredients:
- 1 zucchini, chopped
- 1/3 cup cold-pressed olive oil (or another neutral oil, such as flax oil)
- 1/3 cup raw tahini
- 3 cloves garlic
- 3 tbsp lemon or lime juice
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Preparation:
Combine all ingredients together in a blender or food processor until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasonings, to taste.
