Hummus & Egg Substitute

Christmas 2020, I was draining and throwing away garbanzo beans in order to get the juice for an egg substitute. There had to be a better solution. One son can’t have sesame seeds, but I looked into hummus without tahini. Jackpot! I honestly love this so much, I have no idea how long it lasts in the fridge. Because in my fridge, it only lasts 3 days. But that’s because it’s gone by then.

Hummus is really easy to make! All you need are a few ingredients and a blender.

Can Garbanzo Beans (I buy ones that only contain the beans, water and salt)

1-ish Tbsp Oil (I use grapeseed, but you can use whatever you want)

Lemon (Use 1/4, squeezed or you can use vinegar. The acid makes it pop!)

1/4-1/2 Clove Garlic (I like fresh, but you can use granules)

1 Green Onion Stalk (Or onion powder)

1-2 Tbsp Parsley (Again, I prefer fresh, but use dried sometimes. Just use less, 1-2 tsp)

1/2 tsp Cumin Powder

Salt

Pepper

Water (Helps it blend all together, otherwise it’s super thick)

*The thing about my recipes is that I often don’t measure. Plus, everyone likes things a little bit different. Play around with it and see what works for you. Pro tip: start on the low end. You can always add more!
