Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Cauliflower florets
- 1 large Roasted red bell peppers
- 1 tablespoon Tahini
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the cauliflower florets on the sheet and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Toss to coat evenly.
Roast in the oven for 20 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender and begins to brown slightly.
While the cauliflower is roasting, prepare the roasted red bell pepper by removing its skin and seeds if not done already.
In a food processor, combine roasted cauliflower, roasted red bell pepper, tahini, garlic cloves, lemon juice, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Pulse the mixture a few times to combine, then add water incrementally while blending until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or lemon juice as needed.
Transfer the hummus to a serving bowl. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
Serve with fresh vegetable sticks or paleo-friendly crackers.
