White bean hummus

Hello!

Serves 10
5 minutes
Difficulty Easy
5 Ingredients

This is a nut free hummus recipe that my children take to their school. It can be used as a spread inside bread or tortillas, as a dip with vegetable or bread sticks. It also makes a great salad dressing.

Ingredients (serves 10)

1 Can White Canellini Beans
2 Tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Lemon Juice
1/2 tsp Salt, adjust to taste
1/2 tsp Smoked Red Paprika

Method

Drain the liquid from the Canellini beans and set aside.
Add the beans, salt, lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil to a blender.
Blend the beans until smooth. Use the reserved liquid to adjust consistency, if required (this seems to differ from one brand to another).
Add salt to taste and stir in the paprika. Store in the refrigerator.

This looks great. I love hummus. If only I could get my kids to eat it. It’s so good for them too.

oh yum, so simple too. And if I put a can of beans in the pantry it’ll be a great ‘go-to’ emergency dip for when friends pop in unexpectedly.
