Cauliflower hummus:

I know what you all are thinking, cauliflower hummus? Yes it is a thing and I personally enjoy it better than regular hummus. I created this recipe last year when I was doing a Whole30 and it has been a part of my meal rotation since then.

Meal prep:

I like to meal prep this hummus on Sunday and serve it throughout the week with a variety of meals. But my favorite type of meal to enjoy it with is Mediterranean food.

Ingredients you will need:

This recipe only requires 8 ingredients most likely already in your pantry and refrigerator.

1. Cauliflower
2. Garlic cloves
3. Turmeric
4. Cumin
5. Avocado oil or olive oil
6. Juice of a lemon
7. Tahini
8. Salt and pepper to taste

How to prepare:

I first roast my cauliflower which I seasoned with avocado oil spray, salt + pepper, turmeric, cumin, and add the whole cloves of garlic. I bake 400 F for 25 minutes and once done I let cool before transferring to my food processor.

Making the hummus:

Once the cauliflower has cooled for about 5 minutes, I then transfer to my food processor along with the rest of the ingredients, and process until I reach my desired consistency. I like mine thick, but if you want a thinner consistency feel free to add more avocado oil or olive oil.

What to enjoy it with:

I love making this when we are planning having build your own Mediterranean bowls at home. But it really pairs nicely with a variety of meals or as a simple snack for dipping vegetables in.
