White Bean Hummus with Garlic

White Bean Hummus without tahini has just the right balance of beans and garlic for a delicious flavor. A vegan hummus recipe that’s easy to make, healthy and inviting when served with a variety of vegetables and chips.

Have you ever whipped up a creamy dip with garbanzo beans? Well, that’s just what I did for this white bean hummus recipe.

You should too! It is one easy and healthy snack and is perfect for movie nights, game day, parties, or just anytime get-togethers.

Okay, I’ll admit Game Day is sort of an excuse for me to throw a party. I am lucky we had the annual football parties at our house with tag football. It was fun!

We didn’t have hummus in those days. Moms go-to was refried bean dip and some sort of onion dip to go with salty potato chips.

Our crudities were spread out on a tray but we just ate those fresh along with olives of all colors.

I can remember dishes of nuts too. Yeah, mom was cool!

Forget about buying the hummus containers at the stores. You can whip this up in no time, and all you need is a couple of basic ingredients.

But this is so fresh and so much healthier than anything you can get from a store. And you don’t need to worry about unnatural preservatives.

🥘 Hummus ingredients

• Garlic – is used fresh and blends perfectly for a great flavor kick.
• Garbanzo beans – also lovingly known as chickpeas adds a lot of protein besides taste.

You may be wondering, how long does hummus last? You can make it about 4 days ahead of time to preprepare for a get-together but if you have any leftover freezing is an option.

💭 Can you freeze hummus

• Yes, so easily!
• IF FREEZING:

• TO PREPARE AFTER FREEZING:
• Remove from the freezer and put in the refrigerator overnight because it is a pretty solid mass and will take longer to defrost.
• Stir before serving with crackers and/or veggies.
