Butter Bean Hummus (Houmous) image

This is a recipe from Lesley Waters 'Simple Ways to Success - Healthy' cookbook. This is a really creamy houmous and the butter beans add extra protein. I use Bekah's Homemade Tahini #73859 to make it and sometimes I add a little sambal oelek for some extra spicyness. It great served with a variety of fresh vegetables and pita crisps for dipping. Or you could try one of my favourites: a fresh bagel with houmous, rocket and roasted aubergine. Yum!

I'm not a big fan of hummus, but this recipe is pretty good. It's not as heavy as traditional hummus and it has a nice nutty flavor.

This hummus is a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. They love dipping carrots and celery in it.

This hummus is delicious! It's a great way to use up leftover butter beans, and it's a healthier alternative to traditional hummus made with chickpeas.
