Flaxen Hummus

[Guest guest]

Greetings,

 

Here is a recipe for hummus, with a bit of a different twist from the usual.

It is from the Spring issue of Veggie Life magazine.

 

Flaxen Hummus

 

2 tablespoons ground flaxseed

1/4 cup warm water

2 cups cooked garbanzo beans, or

1 15-ounce can, rinsed and drained

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice

2 tablespoons tahini

2 cloves garlic, chopped

1 to 2 tablespoons wheat free tamari,

or Bragg's Liquid Aminos

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

pinch cayenne pepper

pinch black pepper

 

 

In small bowl, combine ground flaxseed and the 1/4 cup water and let soak 10

minutes. In a food processor, combine all ingredients, and process until

smooth.

This hummus is really yummy, with a very slight crunch to it from the

flaxseeds.

 

 

Enjoy,
