Edamame & Chickpea Hummus Recipe
Happy New Year Everyone! This is our first recipe for this year and we prepared something special for you. As you already know, we love hummus so much, it’s our favorite vegan spread / dip ever! Recently, we had chance to finally buy some edamame beans, and the first thing that came to our mind was to make a hummus – Edamame & Chickpea Hummus Recipe.
For those of you who don’t know, edamame beans are immature soybeans. They are great source of protein, antioxidants, healthy fiber, and vitamin K. However be careful when you buy edamame, it has to be non GMO and organic!
This is our own creation of a hummus using only the ingredients that will make this dip creamy, cheesy, nutritious, and amazingly delicious! The hummus can be stored in the airtight container for 5 to 6 days. As all our hummus recipes, this one is also vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free.
