Most raw food hummus recipes use sprouted garbanzo beans or nuts, but this one uses zucchini, instead. Before trying this adaptation, I'd completely given up on a raw 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 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 and red bell peppers. Yum!
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.
