Raw Hummus version 2.0 - a do-over

[sarahfae]

There's nothing like going over your old recipes and re-doing them, only to have them turn out better in taste and health too.
I'll be doing a lot of this over the coming weeks and months, in an effort to eliminate two ingredients that have seemed to dominate my kitchen: Braggs Liquid Aminos, and Agave Nectar.

Here's a recent re-dux, involving my favorite lunchtime (or anytime) snack: "No-Chickpea" Hummus - The redux? No Walnuts, no Agave, no Braggs Liquid Aminos, and additional spices...and the change, to me, is HUGE in a good way.

And Just because it's pretty:
A super simple plate: Tomatoes topped with Zucchini Monsterella Cheeze and sprinkled with Sunflower Parm

"No Chickpea" Hummus version 2.0

1 & 1/2 C Cashews
1/2 C Sunflower seeds

2 tbsp raw Tahini

2-3 tbsp Apple Cidar Vinegar

2 tsp Garlic (to taste)

1 tbsp Lemon

Sea Salt (to taste)

1-3  tbsp Cumin (maybe more)
1 tbsp ground Fenugreek (optional - but it makes it sooooo good!)

2-3 tbsp Evoo (can sub with water)

1 tbsp dried or fresh Chives
1 tsp Onion Powder
2 tsp dried green Bell pepper (can sub with a couple dashes of Paprika)

 

1/2 (maybe a little more) C Water
 

Process all ingredients until smooth.
