This edamame avocado hummus is a shiny, recent, and really flavorful twist on hummus!
This “avo-mame hummus” (as I name it in Dreena’s Variety Kitchen) combines nutritious edamame, inexperienced peas, creamy avocado, together with earthy and shiny seasonings for an absolute dynamite vegan dip.
As a lot of , I really like a very good dip. My artichoke spinach dip and crimson lentil hummus are simply a few my vegan dip recipes that you just’ve cherished over time.
Now it’s time to fulfill your subsequent favourite vegan dip!
I particularly love this edamame avocado hummus within the Spring and Summer time. It’s simply so well-suited to the power of the season (recent, vibrant… “inexperienced”). And, it’s really easy to arrange, simply mix all of the components and also you’re able to dig on in with veg and breads.
In fact, this edamame hummus can be utilized as a sandwich unfold, or as a pizza base. It’s additionally tremendous scrumptious on prime of baked potatoes.
I selected to mix the edamame and inexperienced peas with the avocado as a result of they make an ideal pairing.
Avocado hummus with out the depth of legumes will be overly wealthy and higher suited to a topping than to function a dip. And edamame hummus wants some complete meals fats to make it creamy and stability out the depth of the protein-rich legumes. Avocado is the right alternative – it lends creaminess and a recent high quality.
When Dreena’s Variety Kitchen was launched, this recipe was one used for reprint to advertise the ebook. I keep in mind Tami of Nutmeg Pocket book made it and actually cherished it. (And Tom did too, we caught him going again for extra!) 🙃 That was a enjoyable chat, thanks Tami and Tom.
However it is that form of dip. It’s unassuming but irresistible!
And it’s so nutrient-rich. With complete edamame, inexperienced peas, recent herbs, lime juice, and health-promoting spices.
I’d love so that you can deliver this edamame avocado hummus into your recipe rotation. Particularly this time of 12 months. Spring is looking for us to eat inexperienced! And, with the warmth of summer season we for certain need fuss-free and no-cook meal choices.
So… time to get busy, pals. Throw on that apron and make me proud! 👏

Notes
Blender Observe: This hummus works finest blended in a high-speed blender, as a result of it’s going to higher pulverize the skins on the inexperienced peas. You should use a meals processor for this recipe, although the hummus is not going to be as easy and chances are you’ll discover the flecks of inexperienced peas. I exploit my Blendtec Tornado Jar for this recipe, it really works superbly.
Refrigeration Observe: Since this dip has a good quantity of avocado, it’s going to oxidize some, and so the dip is finest when eaten freshly made. Nonetheless, you may preserve it for a number of days within the fridge in an hermetic container. I want to make use of a deeper, narrower jar or container, to reduce the oxidizing. After refrigerating, you may scrape off the floor layer of the dip the place it has discolored and serve the more energizing layer of the dip.
