    White bean hummus | simpleveganblog.com #vegan #glutenfree

    I've always made hummus with chickpeas, but the other day I used cannellini beans instead and wow! It's less thick, but SO GOOD! ? I'm so obsessed with pumpkin right now, so I also add a pair of cups of chopped raw pumpkin too.

    There are a thousand different ways you can eat hummus: as a side, a salad dressing, a sandwich spread, in pizzas or even you just add some to your favorite pasta or rice recipes to make them creamier.

    Here in Spain is almost impossible to find a healthy store-bought hummus made with natural ingredients (they're full of white sugar and refined oils), so I make homemade hummus every week, I love it! I used to soak legumes overnight and cook them in boiling water until they were soft, but now I also use canned legumes, sometimes, because I found a few brands that only use water, legumes and salt, no additives, no preservatives, yay! I just want to eat real plant-based food, nothing else! ?

    Tips:

    • Canned pumpkin and pumpkin purée also works really well, if you used them the hummus will have a better texture, although I prefer raw pumpkin because it has all the nutrients, as it's uncooked or unprocessed.
    • If you don't like pumpkin, feel free to remove it or add another veggie.
    • You can also use chickpeas or other legumes instead of the cannellini beans.

      Could you use canned pumpkin instead of raw?

      I made this hummus last night and am enjoying it as a salad dressing today. It is incredibly delicious, and it feels so good to know the nutritious benefits the ingredients offer.

      Ooooh, yum! I thought this was soup at first glance. I love white beans in hummus too and I really love the addition of the pumpkin! We also have at least one kind of homemade hummus in our fridge at all times! Great for dipping or a spread on a sandwich. Gonna have to give this one a try!
