I’ve admitted many times that I am a pretty lazy chef. Just give me a bunch of ingredients that I can mash together and I’ll do a great job 🙂
Hummus is such an awesome snack dip for my veggies, crackers, chips, or bread. It’s full of protein, omega 3 fats, fibre, iron, and of course flavour! I started adding dates for some sweetness, which also help balance blood sugar and support hormones! 
My recipe below can be made with chick peas as well. Some recipes call for tahini but I haven’t got any so I left it out. The hummus still turned out delicious!
Makes about 2 cups
What you need:
- 1 cup dried black beans (I mixed in half red kidney beans just because I had some and wanted to try)Â – you can also use canned beans but avoid any added salt or sugar in the ingredients
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1/8 cup olive oil (can adjust depending on desired consistency)
- salt, pepper, sriracha for taste
- juice from 1/2 – 1 whole lime
- 2 dates pitted
What to do:
- soak the beans overnight in your pot, discard the water and refill with new water to completely cover the beans. Bring to a boil and simmir for 1.5 hours
- discard the water, pour everything in a blender (I used my nutribullet) and BLEND!
Enjoy!
