Roasted Cauliflower Hummus

Instructions

Roast the cauliflower.

Preheat the oven to 400 F(200C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Wash and chop cauliflower into florets and place in one layer on the prepared baking sheet.

Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle salt and pepper over the cauliflower.

Roast until tender and lightly browned, for about 20-25 minutes.

Let it cool.

Prepare the cauliflower hummus.

To prepare the hummus, place the roasted cauliflower in the bowl of a food processor.

Add tahini, garlic, olive oil, water, lemon juice, salt and cumin and and process until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add more water, one tablespoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.

Transfer the hummus to a bowl.

Drizzle extra virgin olive oil on top and sprinkle toasted nuts or seeds, fresh parsley and ground red pepper.

Serve with crackers, pita bread chips or vegetable sticks. It goes well as a spread on sandwiches or wraps.
