TWO BEAN CHIPOTLE HUMMUS

I created this recipe in an attempt to make a hummus that my husband would like. He doesn't like the texture of chickpeas. The Great Northern beans really make this creamy without the addition of things like additional fat, yogurt, or tofu - all things I've tried and didn't care for. Since the white beans are mild in flavor, the garbanzo bean flavor still comes through just fine. Feel free to adjust the seasonings to get it the way you like it best. I do not add salt when using canned beans, but I probably would add a little bit of sea salt if I were using beans cooked from dry.

My children love this easy hummus and even like to help me make it! Hummus is a great way to sneak some beans and important soluble fiber into their diets. I also serve this in a bread bowl with my vegetable platter for our Thanksgiving dinner. -Kelly Andreas, Eau Claire, Wisconsin

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use dried chickpeas and white beans. Soaking them overnight before cooking will help them cook more evenly and quickly.
  • Be sure to drain and rinse the beans well before using them in the hummus. This will help to remove any excess starch and make the hummus smoother.
  • Use a food processor or high-powered blender to get the smoothest hummus possible. If you don't have a food processor, you can mash the beans by hand, but it will take a bit more time and effort.
  • Season the hummus to taste with salt, pepper, garlic, lemon juice, and tahini. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as cumin, coriander, or paprika, to taste.
  • Serve the hummus with pita bread, veggies, or crackers. It can also be used as a sandwich spread or dip for falafel.

Conclusion:

Two-bean hummus is a delicious and versatile dip that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It's a great source of protein, fiber, and healthy fats, making it a nutritious addition to any meal. Whether you're serving it as an appetizer, snack, or main course, two-bean hummus is sure to be a hit.
