Basic Nutritarian Hummus Recipe
Feel free to use this recipe instead of store-bought hummus, if you prefer. If you’re just starting out, might I suggest just going the oil-free storebought route this time, and making your own next time if you like. Less overwhelm and less cooking. And if you can’t find a storebought that is oil-free/low-sodium, just use less. Freeze leftovers.
Makes 3-4 cups (6-8 servings)
INGREDIENTS
3 cups cooked garbanzo beans (2 15-ounce cans) OR use ½ garbanzo beans and ½ Great Northern Beans or other creamy white bean
½ cup no- or low-sodium vegetable broth (more or less depending on consistency preference) OR aquafaba
⅓ cup no-salt raw tahini
Juice from 2 medium lemons (¼ cup)
3 small cloves garlic, minced
½ teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons unfortified nutritional yeast
DIRECTIONS
To a blender or food processor, add all ingredients and blend until creamy, scraping down the sides when needed and adding an additional liquid 1 tablespoon at a time as needed to get the mixture moving. Season to taste.


LETTUCE WRAPS
Makes 3 servings
INGREDIENTS
1 medium onion, sliced thinly OR chopped
1 cup broccoli florets, cut small
2 medium carrots, peeled, small-diced
2 sweet bell peppers, small-diced
2 cups chopped bok choy
8 ounces mushrooms ( your choice)
2 handfuls of baby spinach (2 ounces)
Large Romaine lettuce leaves to fill with the cooked veggies

DIRECTIONS
In a large skillet heated to medium-high, add the onions and let them cook a bit to soften. Add the remaining ingredients, except the spinach which only needs to be wilted at the end of the cooking.

Note: in the video, we didn’t soak the almonds, however, we recommend soaking for at least an hour and then draining off the soak liquid before using- even with a Vitamix, you will find the soaked almonds will end up giving you a creamier end product!

ALMOND SAUCE (Based on a Dr Fuhrman recipe)
Makes 6-8 servings (use as a salad dressing by thinning with water or veggie broth)
INGREDIENTS
1 cup raw almonds, soaked for at least 1 hour in 2 cups water: discard soak water
¼ cup unsweetened plant milk
1 cup water
3 Tablespoons unhulled sesame seeds
2 pitted medjool dates
3 medium cloves garlic, minced
½” (or more to taste) fresh garlic root
Pinch of hot pepper flakes (or more as desired)

DIRECTIONS
In the large container of a high-powered blender, combine all ingredients and whirl until smooth. Taste and add any flavorings you would like.
