Serves: 1.5 cups
A bean-free hummus that’s easy to digest, and bursting with sun-dried tomato flavor!
Serve with your favorite veggies as a dip or as a sandwich spread.
Ingredients
- 1 cup diced zucchini, peeled if you like
- 7 sun dried tomato halves, softened in warm water and chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- ¼ teaspoon sea salt
- ⅓ cup raw tahini
Instructions
- Combine the diced zucchini, chopped sun-dried tomatoes, garlic and lemon juice in a mini food chopper or blender, and pulse until a uniform mixture is achieved. (It doesn’t have to become a smooth puree, unless you prefer a silky-smooth texture.)
- Add in the raw tahini and sea salt, then blend again until well mixed.
- Serve immediately, or allow to chill in the fridge until ready to serve. I think the flavor gets even better after the flavors meld together for a few hours.
Notes
Raw tahini has a very thick texture that works well with this bean-free dip. Other types of tahini may be more oily, and therefore might create a more runny result.
Tahini is a ground paste, similar to a nut butter, made from sesame seeds. It’s popular in Middle Eastern dishes, and it’s one of the ingredients in many hummus recipes. It’s also great in salad dressings, especially if you like rich, creamy dressings but want to avoid mayonnaise.
