I found this intriguing in concept. But what is wrong with adding a little amount of chickpeas in the mix? Im going to try it and let you know...

Raw Chickpea-Less Hummus  Yields6-8+ servings

This yummy dip has been a crowd-pleaser at many events and parties I’ve hosted. Football fans- try making it to snack on while watching the games today and/or tomorrow. Or make a batch to last the work week ahea- it holds up for about 5 days.
Because it has a zucchini base instead of a chickpea base, it is lighter and easier to digest. Unsprouted chickpeas can make us gassy and bloated since they inherently contain a mix of protein and starch. I’ve even been known to use this dip as a salad dressing!
  • 2 organic zucchinis, chopped
  • ¾ cup tahini (raw if you can find it)
  • 2 Tbs. nutritional yeast
  • ½ cup fresh lemon juice
  •  2 medium or 3 small garlic cloves, minced
  • High quality sea salt, to tasteBlend all ingredients in the blender together until smooth.
Dip celery, carrots red peppers, and cucumbers for a great snack or appetizer- or toss some into salad as a a dressing!
