Roasted Cauliflower Hummus

This roasted cauliflower hummus is the perfect blend of sophisticated taste and guilt-free snackage. Substituting roasted cauliflower for the traditional chickpeas not only makes it a low-carb option, but also adds a depth of flavour that might just make this your new favourite hummus. The ginger and sambal chilli add a lasting zing that keeps you coming back for more. Healthy? Check. Delicious? Check. What are you waiting for?

Ingredients

  • 1 large cauliflower 
  • 1/4 Cup Tahini 
  • 1 Tbsp. + ½ tsp. True Lemon powder 
  • 2 Tbsp. Roasted Garlic purée 
  • 1 Tbsp. Ginger purée

  • 1/2 tsp Salt, or to taste
  • 1 Cup Olive oil

Preheat oven to 400 F.

Clean and remove leaves from cauliflower, cut into medium size pieces keeping stem. Lightly brush with olive oil and toss onto a non stick or parchment paper lined baking pan. Place into oven for approximately 20-25 minutes, then remove and let cool.

In food processor add cauliflower, blend until begins to form “rice” stage , then start adding adding all other ingredients until smooth, adjust seasoning as needed. 

Notes

  • I use one large whole cauliflower, with leaves removed equalling 4 cups.
  • You can use lemon juice and zest instead of True Lemon powder, add to your taste.
  • You can also adjust spice or garlic level to your desire as well.
