RAW CASHEW CHICKPEA HUMMUS!

Steps:

• In food processor or mortar and pestle grind cashews and garlic until small.
• Add in chickpeas (see note below on how to sprout them), ginger, salt and spices/herbs. Grind until chickpeas are small bits.
• Add in lemon/lime juice and olive oil and blend until smooth. You may need to add a splash of water to reach desired consistency (smooth but not runny).
• That's it your ready to eat enjoy!
• How to sprout chickpeas: Rinse and soak 1 cup of dried chickpeas for 12-24 hours, if soaking for 24 hours rinse and add new water half way through. After they have soaked rinse and place in a large clean glass jar and place cheesecloth over the top with an elastic. Place on its side so the chickpeas get a lot of air circulation in a well lit room. Chickpeas will take 1-4 days to sprout and will need to be rinsed 2-3 times a day. They are ready to eat when the "tail" is 1/4-1/2 inch long :).

CORN AND CASHEW HUMMUS

Steps:

• Place corn, cashews, lemon juice, salt, onion powder, and garlic powder in a blender and blend until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute.

RAW HUMMUS

Steps:

• Soak the beans for 24 hours. Drain, and let sit for 2 to 3 days, until the bean's sprouts are about 1/2 inch long. Rinse the beans once or twice a day.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Remove from heat, and let stand for 1 minute. Place the sprouted beans in the hot water, and let sit for 1 minute. Drain. If you do not do this step, the hummus will be awful.
• Place the sprouted beans into the container of a large food processor. Add the tahini, sea salt, lemon juice, and garlic. Process until smooth, adding water if necessary. It will take 3 to 5 minutes to blend. Let sit in the food processor for 5 minutes to allow the beans to absorb as much of the water as possible. If too thick, add more water, and blend again. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. Spoon into a serving dish, and garnish with paprika.
