Artichoke Heart Hummus Recipe
This artichoke heart hummus is the perfect veggie dip!
One of my favorite parts about going 100% plant-based is…. you guessed it… hummus! I’ve always loved hummus intensely. I could almost eat it straight with a spoon.
But since I was eating low carb for so long, hummus was off the table. And yes, it was difficult. Very, very difficult. I mean… no hummus at all? It was one of the hardest things to give up for me and the very first thing I dug into when I went vegan.
I’m not sure what inspired me to use this particular combination, but I’m sure glad I did! This is great with any veggies you might want to dip into it. It would be perfect on a piece of crusty morning toast or even stuffed into a sweet potato. (Hummus and sweet potatoes rock!!)
The nice thing about this recipe is that it whips up super fast! Just dump all the ingredients in a food processor, and blend for about 2-3 minutes! Voila! Delicious hummus! I’ll be making this again and again. In fact, I will never give up my beloved hummus ever again. Plant-based forever!!!
