White Bean Hummus with Warm Rosemary Garlic Mushrooms
Hummus can be made from pulses other than chickpeas! I’ve used white beans here and paired them with warm garlicky rosemary mushrooms for an added sensory dimension. Serve with whole grain crackers or whole grain pita chips.
- Yield: Makes 2-1/2 cups of hummus 1x
Ingredients
Scale
Hummus

- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon oil such as olive, canola, grapeseed oil or Thrive Algae Oil

- 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped garlic

Instructions
Hummus
- Place the beans, garlic and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Blend until smooth.Scrape down sides of processor bowl with a silicone spatula.

Mushrooms
- Heat a skillet over medium high heat. Once hot, add the oil.
- Add the mushrooms and allow to cook, without stirring, for 2 minutes. ( If mushrooms are stirred too early, they won’t brown.)

- Add lemon juice, stir, and remove from heat
To Serve

Serve with crunchy crackers or crunchy veggie dippers. Use gluten free crackers if keeping to a gluten free diet is desired.
