Protein-Packed Hummus Delight

Ingredients

• 1 can (15 ounces) chickpeas, drained and rinsed
• 2 tablespoons tahini
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• ½ teaspoon paprika
• ½ teaspoon Sunwarrior Sea Salt
• ¼ teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Sunwarrior Nutritional Yeast
• 2 scoops Sunwarrior Classic Plus protein, unflavored
• 2-4 tablespoons water (as needed for consistency)

Directions

1. In a food processor, combine the chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the nutritional yeast and protein powder to the food processor. Process again until all the ingredients are well combined.
3. While the food processor is running, gradually add water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency. The water helps to make the hummus smoother and creamier.
4. Taste the hummus and adjust the seasonings if needed. You can add more lemon juice, salt, or spices according to your preference.
5. Once the hummus reaches your desired texture and flavor, transfer it to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a little olive oil and sprinkle with some extra hemp seeds and paprika for garnish.
6. Serve the protein-packed hummus with fresh vegetables, whole-grain crackers, or pita bread. It also makes a great spread for sandwiches and wraps.
