Hummus has to be one of my very favorite dips.
While traditional recipes call for chickpeas to thicken it up, my version uses fresh zucchini to keep it properly combined with the raw tahini.
Enjoy this dip with your favorite raw crudites, or thin it out for a creamy salad dressing!

i made your hummus today!!!! I have to say you are a genius!!!!! Not only I loved it, but so did my kids. You know if kids like what you cook you are doing something right. I love your website and I’ve been coming here almost everyday to get an idea on what to make. I recently went mostly raw, but im not into eating nuts. So thank you so much for your wonderful nutless recipes. Much love!!!!!!
That’s great! I’m so glad you and your children enjoyed it!
Now I want some hummus myself.
Hello
I am a complete newbie to cooking and browsing through your site, I’ve noticed different kitchen appliances that you use. What is the difference between your blender, food processor, and food chopper? Will just using a food processor yield the same results for your recipes? I am a poor college student and prefer not to buy a lot of items if not necessary. Thanks a lot!!
wait…so chickpeas and tahini aren’t a “proper combination”?

I was very skeptical of this recipe because how can zucchini taste like hummus? But OMG, it’s one of the best dips I have ever tired….ever. Ate with carrot and daikon sticks and it’s absolutely delicious!
