GARLIC FREE HUMMUS



Shout out to all my low FODMAP friends out there, this recipe is for you!

Something I have noticed since coming to terms with the fact that I'm allergic to garlic is that it's in EVERYTHING! Ok, well maybe not everything obviously not in food like chocolate. But boy do Americans love to cook with this stuff. Lately i've been eating out a lot and if i'm not explicit with my garlic free requirements 9.5 times out of 10 my food will be garlic heavy and my stomach will be very upset with me,

Even regular supermarket items likes Pasta Sauce and Hummus always contain this otherwise good for you ingredient. Does anyone else out there have the same predicament?

So with this all being said I am now taking it upon myself to go homemade everything.

First up...

HUMMUS.

This Hummus recipe is super easy and makes for a quick and tasty whip up when you need something to dip your corn chips into or dress an otherwise boring salad.

What you'll need:

  • 1 can drained and rinsed organic chickpeas

  • 1/4 c extra virgin olive oil

  • 1.4 cup tahini

  • 2 tsp curry powder

  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper

  • 1/2 tsp pink salt

  • cracked pepper

  • juice from 1 lemon

What to do:

  • Throw all ingredients in a food processor and whizz on high until smooth and creamy

  • Spoon onto a serving plate, drizzle with more olive oil and garnish with toppings such as crushed pistachios and sesame seeds

  • Serve & enjoy **Store any leftovers covered and in the fridge.
