This coconut Thai hummus has it all: it’s creamy, zesty, and loaded with nutrients. Topped with BLENDABELLA™ Coconut Thai blend, it’s your perfect appetizer.

Hummus is my favorite. It’s also one of the ONLY foods my son will eat. At least it’s full of protein and fat, right?

I doubt Bazooka will eat this spicy coconut Thai variety, but that’s ok, because I want this all for myself! And since I’m stuck at home today thanks to Tropical Storm Gordon weather closure, I might snack on this stuff all day long.

You guys already saw my last recipe, and this time I’m using my sample of BLENDABELLA™ Coconut Thai blend to add a little zest and zing to one of my all-time favorite dips.

If you’re not familiar with BLENDABELLA™ let me share a little secret: it’s the best way to dress up your go-to recipes that might be tasting a little boring or too predictable. It’s a jarred blend of portobello mushrooms, spices, and vegetables that tastes spectacular on its own but is better incorporated into any recipe where you want some added flavor. A little lagniappe, if you will.

Lucky for you, BLENDABELLA™ can be purchased directly from their website. If you’re looking for even more recipe ideas and inspiration, check out their recipe page and follow their social media: Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, and Twitter.

BLENDABELLA™ COCONUT THAI HUMMUS

Ingredients

• 2 15-oz cans of chickpeas, drained
• ½ cup unsweetened coconut milk
• 4 Tbsp red chili paste
• 4 Tbsp tahini
• zest + juice of 1 lime
• salt + pepper, to taste
• ice cold water*
• 1 jar of Coconut Thai BLENDABELLA™ 

Directions

• Add all ingredients (except for the water and BLENDABELLA™) to the container of a food processor; process on low or high until creamy.
• For an even creamer hummus, drizzle ice cold water (I used about 2 Tbsp*) into the hummus while continuing to blend.
• Give it a taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed.
• Pour into a bowl and top with a giant spoonful of BLENDABELLA™ Coconut Thai Blend
• Serve with crackers, sliced celery, carrots, and anything else you’d like

This recipe has convinced me I need to make homemade hummus more often. And maybe, if I’m lucky, I can sneak in other good stuff and convince Bazooka to eat it. One can only hope, right?…
