Avacado Hummus

Remember my last attempt at hummus?  When I decided that it was easier to just buy the good stuff at the store?

I take back everything I said.  I can make hummus.  Here's the proof:

INGREDIENTS

  1. 1 can of white beans, drained and rinsed
  2. 1 avocado, cubed
  3. juice from 1/2 of a lime
  4. 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon of olive oil (a lower fat option: substitute oil for juice from the beans)
  5. 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  6. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
DIRECTIONS

Mix together well (in a blender or food processor).  Serve.


VERDICT

Delicious.  I'm so glad that I'm completely ADD sometimes (I like to call it creative inattention) because it leads to recipes like this.  It is 10am on a week day morning and I'm actually at home working.  But this recipe I printed off pinterest caught my eye and I knew I had an avacado that needed to be used up.  Five minutes later I'm back on e-mail and the hummus is in the fridge, just waiting to be devoured tonight.  Success!
