Equipment

  • 1 food processor

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups cooked chickpeas (rinsed and drained if using canned)
  • 1 medium ripe avocado
  • 1 tbsp jalapeños (jarred or fresh)
  • 1/2 cup smooth tahini
  • 2 1/4 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 1/2 tbsp lime juice (freshly squeezed)
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup of our saved bean juice or water (to blend)
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • Extra diced or sliced jalapeños for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Prep the Ingredients: In a food processor, add the pre-cooked chickpeas, avocado, jalapeños, tahini, olive oil, lime juice, baking soda, salt, and black pepper.
  • Blend: Blend the mixture on high until smooth. If the hummus is too thick, add 1 tablespoon of water at a time until the desired consistency is achieved. You should end up with a creamy, velvety texture.
  • Garnish: Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl and sprinkle extra diced jalapeños on top for a spicy garnish.
  • Serve: Pair the hummus with fresh veggies, pita chips, or use it as a flavorful sandwich spread.
  • Enjoy: Indulge in the perfect combination of creamy avocado and spicy jalapeño with a refreshing hint of lime—perfect for Southern-inspired gatherings!
