Golden Hummus

We can't get enough protein rich snacks. This one can be done simply or, if you are feeling up for it, the more fresh complex way. Take the shortcuts you need! This is loosely based on a recipe from Minimalist Baker.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 15-ounce can chickpeas, drained, rinsed

• 1 medium lemon, juiced

• 3 Tbsp Tahini * (if no tahini on hand, try greek yogurt, nut butter with a dash of sesame oil)

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tsp ginger, freshly grated

• 1/2 tsp fresh grated turmeric (or ground is fine but use less)

• 1/4 tsp ground turmeric

• 1/4 tsp sea salt, more to taste

• 1 pinch cayenne pepper (optional)

• 1-2 Tbsp sesame oil (or olive oil, or water)

• 
  

METHOD:

• Add ingredients together and blend, adding more seasoning to taste.

• To create a creamier texture, add a bit of oil (or water)

NOTES:

Turn this into an easy convenience food by buying store bought hummus and adding the turmeric, garlic, ginger
