What Makes This Hummus Special?

High Protein Hummus is not your average dip. Traditional hummus, made from chickpeas, is already a good source of protein. However, when you supercharge it with hemp hearts, you’re taking it to a whole new level. Hemp hearts, also known as hemp seeds, are rich in complete protein, providing all the essential amino acids your body needs.

You can also add greek yogurt, sesame seeds, and/or protein powder.

How to make this Recipe:

  1. Start with garlic and lemon juice

    First, place the garlic and lemon juice into the food processor and let it sit for about 5 minutes (to reduce spiciness of the garlic).

  2. Blend until creamy

    Next, add the chickpeas, sea salt, cumin, tahini, olive oil, and hemp hearts to the food processor, start on low speed and turn to high speed until it becomes thick. Turn off the machine, add the cold water, and scrape down the sides. Then, blend for another 3-5 minutes until fully creamy. Add more cold water if needed until desired consistency.

  3. Enjoy

    Finally, remove from the the food processor and garnish with fresh parsley or cilantro (chopped), red pepper flakes, paprika, and/or olive oil.
