Avocado Hummus

Hi Everyone, this Avocado Hummus recipe is inspired by my Lemon Garlic Hummus recipe that I posted about last February.

It’s been a very popular recipe on Life’s Little Sweets, so I have wanted to do a variation on it and also as an excuse to eat more hummus!

I did keep this Avocado Hummus in the refrigerator overnight and it did not brown like guacamole might.

So, it is possible to make this ahead but it is so good when you make it fresh and eat it right away 🙂

Ingredients for Avocado Hummus

• 2-15 ounce cans of chickpeas, reserve canning liquid separately
• 1 large, ripe Haas avocado
• 1-2 cloves of freshly minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon of plain sesame seeds, plus more if desired (on top)
• A drizzle of extra virgin olive oil (on top)
• freshly chopped cilantro or parsley, to sprinkle on top
• kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
• Suggested: fresh-cut veggies, pita chips, or pita bread for serving
