Then you are sure to want to try this recipe. It is allot like guacamole with a more creamy thick base.

That comes from the tahini sauce and chickpeas.

WHAT TO EAT WITH AVOCADO HUMMUS

WILL AVOCADO HUMMUS TURN BROWN

Yes, unless you freeze it. You can expect the avocados to turn brown in less than a day!

CAN YOU FREEZE HUMMUS

Absolutely, I do it all the time. I will make a big batch and store some in the fridge for my family.

Which lasts us up to a week in an air tight container. 

Then I will section some off for the freezer, for movie nights, game nights and snacks. 

There is always hummus in our fridge or freezer.

HOW TO MAKE AVOCADO HUMMUS

• Drain and rinse chickpeas, add to your blender or food processor with your avocado, olive oil, tahini, lime juice, cilantro and fresh garlic. Pulse for 1 minute or so until chickpeas and avocado are semi – smooth.
• Next add in all your “dry spices” and pulse again until smooth this time, scraping down sides if needed and adding in more olive oil if you feel is needed.
• Serve an hour or more after chilling in the fridge with your choice of tortilla chips ARRIBA!

Note: For best results chill it in an airtight container for up to 1 hour or more before serving. The longer it chills in the fridge the thicker it becomes and the flavors really set in. Also add the pit of one Avocado in the mixture helps to maintain its freshness.
