Hummus is a no brainer, go to dip for so many these days! Served with crudité, pita bread or chips, falafels – you name it! This cold and creamy dip is a healthy alternative to butter on a sandwich, it’s easy to pair with meats, vegetables, and salads, and it makes a great sub when those avocados sitting on your counter accidently get too ripe too fast.  

 
This recipe takes a normal healthy hummus up a notch. We strategically add popular super food powders to increase nutritional value and add some beautiful, natural green color.

Ingredients:

1 ¼ cups dried chickpeas
 
1 tsp baking soda
 
1 cup tahini paste
 
3 Tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
 
½ cup flat leaf parsley leaves
 
3 cloves garlic, crushed
 
1/2 tsp Maju Weatgrass Juice Powder
 
1/2 tsp Maju Spirulina Powder

Step 4: Combine drained chickpeas, 5 cups of water, and baking soda in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
 
Step 5: Simmer for 30 minutes, skimming any foam or skins that float to the top, until the chickpeas are very tender.
