This roasted garlic hummus has an unusual green hue because kale is also an ingredient. The gluten-free and vegan recipe is perfect for people who have dietary restrictions and are looking for a healthy snack.
Using fresh raw kale and roasted garlic, the simple dip is easy to put together and "is filled with layers of incredible flavors." It goes great with a variety of dippable vehicles, including rice crackers, tortilla chips and raw vegetables. The spread is also an unexpected but delicious addition to pizza, sandwiches and wraps. No one is going to judge you if you choose to just eat it with a spoon, either.
To make your own kale and roasted garlic hummus at home, you will need a bulb of fresh garlic, chickpeas, lemon juice, tahini, salt, kale, olive oil and red pepper flakes or black pepper.
