I have only recently discovered the goodness that is guacamole.... I'm not sure if it was because of taste or consistency or just the fact that I'm extremely picky, but I never liked it until I made my own. However, I tried a very basic recipe a few months ago and fell in love. Unfortunately, in addition to being picky, I am also easily bored. (Drives my husband crazy, truth be told!) Anyways, when I heard of avocado hummus, my curiosity was instantly piqued! Hummus is one of my all-time favorite snack foods!
I looked at the recipe online and decided to do a little tweaking. Made it as a snack on Sunday and have been snacking on it ever since! And in case you're wondering, there is a bit of oxidation just on top where the avocado meets the air, but not much! Definitely not enough to keep me from eating it. All right, enough preamble:
Ingredients:
- 1 can chick peas (garbanzo beans), drained and rinsed
- 2 avocados, peeled and seeded
- 3 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 tsp. peanut butter
- juice from 1 lime (about 3-4 Tbsp.)
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1/8 tsp cumin
- sea salt to taste
