Ingredients & Substitutions
Edamame is not only tasty but also loaded with protein! If you can't find shelled edamame, you can use frozen ones; just cook them according to package instructions. I love using fresh lemon juice because it brightens everything up, but bottled works in a pinch. Feel free to play around with spices; I sometimes add a dash of curry powder for a different twist!
Tips & Notes
- •I keep mine in a glass jar in the fridge—it stays fresh for about a week.
- •Serve it with fresh veggies or whole grain pita chips for a satisfying snack!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I'll add roasted red peppers for a sweet, smoky flavor.
- •If I'm feeling indulgent, I mix in some nutritional yeast for a cheesy twist!
Storage & Freezing
Store your hummus in an airtight container in the fridge. It’s great for up to a week, but I doubt it’ll last that long—it's just too good!
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other beans instead of edamame?
Absolutely! Chickpeas would work great too, but they’ll give you a different flavor. If you’re in the mood for an adventure, try black beans!
