Butter Bean Hummus (Houmous) image

This is a recipe from Lesley Waters 'Simple Ways to Success - Healthy' cookbook. This is a really creamy houmous and the butter beans add extra protein. I use Bekah's Homemade Tahini #73859 to make it and sometimes I add a little sambal oelek for some extra spicyness. It great served with a variety of fresh vegetables and pita crisps for dipping. Or you could try one of my favourites: a fresh bagel with houmous, rocket and roasted aubergine. Yum!

This hummus is a great way to use up leftover butter beans. It's also a healthier alternative to traditional hummus, and it's just as delicious.

This hummus was a delightful surprise! The butter beans added a creamy texture and a subtle nutty flavor that complemented the lemon and garlic perfectly. It was a hit at my party, and everyone asked for the recipe.
