Gluten free, Paleo friendly

 

If beans are no longer your friend, you can try this yummy alternative to the garbanzo bean hummus we all love.

 

Ingredients

 

2 cups raw cashews

½ teaspoon cumin

¾ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon garlic powder

2 tablespoons tahini

4-5 tablespoons lime juice (5 tablespoons if you like to taste the lime flavor)

3 tablespoons warm water or more to desired thickness

 

Directions

 

Place all the ingredients into a blender, and blend until smooth and creamy!

 

Additional Options

 

To make the hummus creamier you can soak the cashews for a few hours in warm water.

To make a roasted red pepper version you can add 1-2 large roasted red peppers.
