This avocado hummus recipe is something I attempted on a whim and not thinking much of it, but it’s ended up being one of my favorite dips I’ve ever made! It combines my two favorite dips- guacamole and hummus but somehow makes it even better! This recipe is so simple and so delicious and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!
One of my favorite things about this recipe is that it is, not only delicious, but it can be stored in the fridge and eaten throughout the week without the avocados turning brown! As long as you keep it sealed, the avocados will taste fresh and green, at least for five days (that’s as long as this dip has ever lasted in the fridge without being devoured LOL).
What you will need for this avocado hummus
- 1 can chickpeas
- 1 avocado (medium sized)
- 1 cup cilantro (about 25 grams)
- 1 clove garlic
- 1 lime
- 3-4 tbsp oil
- salt and pepper to taste
How to make the avocado hummus
- Drain the water from 1 can of chickpeas. You can choose to remove the skin from the chickpeas in order to make the hummus more smooth. Or you can leave them and the taste will be just as delicious, but the texture more chunky.
- To a food processor, add the chickpeas, avocado, cilantro, garlic, juice of 1 lime, and oil. Blend the ingredients for several minutes, until you have a creamy consistency and all of the ingredients are well combined.
- Taste the avocado hummus and add salt and pepper (as much as you like according to your taste).
- I paired my avocado hummus with pita bread, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, olives, nuts, and marinated vegan mozzarella.
