Pea Hummus

Ingredients:

• 3 cups frozen green peas
• 4-5 tbsps freshly squeezed lemon juice, to taste
• ⅓ cup loosely packed cilantro leaves
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 garlic clove, roughly chopped, or ½ tsp garlic powder
• ½ tsp paprika
• ½ tsp ground cumin
• ¼ to ½ tsp cayenne
• ¼ to ½ tsp sea salt (optional)
• 1-2 tbsps cold water, to desired consistency (optional)
• 4 cups vegetable crudités, to serve (optional)

Directions:

Place a dry skillet on medium-high heat and add the peas. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring often, until the peas are bright green and hot. If you overcook the peas, the dip will lose its pretty bright green color.

Place the peas in a food processor and add the lemon juice, cilantro leaves, onion powder, garlic or garlic powder, paprika, cumin, cayenne, and sea salt (if using). Process on high speed until the dip is as smooth as possible. If you need to add a tablespoon or two of cold water to get the consistency you want, go ahead and do that. Taste and adjust the spices as desired.

Serve immediately with crudités, or keep refrigerated until needed.

Serves 2-3

Tips:

• Whenever possible, it’s best to look for organic frozen green peas.
• While high-quality sea salt or mountain rock salt is an optional inclusion in this recipe, the recipe is more healing without salt. Over time, you may wish to reduce or exclude the salt.
