Avocado Chickpea Hummus

Serves 4-6  | Prep Time: 10 minutes | Cook Time: none

A lovely snack to keep on hand; very versatile. Same concept as regular hummus just a little more rich with avocado and unique with basil. Serve with some crackers or crusty bread and some nice veg. In m humble opinion this would go well with some steamed fish as well.

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 handful basil

  • 1 tablespoon tahini (or cashew butter)
