Loaded Sweet Potato Herb Hummus

Author: This Worthey Life

Ingredients

  • 1 cup sweet potato cooked, cut into chunks, then mashed
  • 1 cup of chickpeas
  • 2-3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of tahini paste
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon flat-leaf parsley
  • juice of half a lemon
  • 2 cloves garlic chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 medium red onion chopped
  • 1 cup olives chopped
  • 1/3 cup pine nuts
  • ProTip: To cut down on the preparation time cook the sweet potatoes ahead of time and keep them in the fridge. You can also prep the topping ahead of time too.

Instructions

  • Into a food processor, add the chickpeas, sweet potatoes, extra virgin olive oil, tahini paste, flat-leaf parsley, juice of half a lemon, garlic, and cumin.
  • Secure the lid on the food processor and pulse on high.
  • Through the porthole, drizzle in the extra virgin olive oil and continue to pulse until the hummus is smooth- about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the lid and taste the hummus. Adjust the amount of sea salt and olive oil to achieve the saltiness and consistency you desire.
  • Spoon the hummus into a serving bowl and top with chopped olives, red onion, and pine nuts.
  • Serve.
