In my effort to increase the fiber in my diet – I made some hummus. Hummus is not new to my diet but I very rarely make my own. The last time I made it in my Magic Bullet. That worked just fine but I really wanted creamier hummus. Now I have the Nutribullet and a Vitamix so I can make it as creamy as I want it. I chose to make it today instead of buying it because I wanted to be sure of the ingredients – my stomach is still trying to heal from a major illness. Plus I wanted to try making artichoke hummus – I have never made that flavor. Artichokes are very high in fiber and they are delicious.
Artichoke Hummus
1 can chickpeas
1 can artichoke
1/2 cup tahini
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon lemon juice
salt to taste
pepper to taste
This came out amazing. I simply threw everything directly into the Vitamix and blended it all up – yeah that took about two seconds. Then I was left with a bowl of creamy deliciousness. I may really never buy hummus again!
