Ingredients
  

Holiday Hummus

  • 4 Small Whole Carrots washed and peeled
  • Neutral Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Clove Garlic minced
  • 1 Tsp Chopped Fresh Rosemary
  • 1 Tsp Dried Parsley
  • 1 15 oz Can Chickpeas rinsed and drained
  • 1 Tbs Water
  • Juice from 1/2 a Lemon
  • 1/2 Tsp Salt
  • 1/2 Tsp Black Pepper
  • 1/4 Tsp Paprika

Garnishes

  • Pomegranate Seeds
  • Curly Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Prep your carrots - wash them, peel them, and cut them into 1-inch size chunks. Toss with a tiny bit of vegetable oil, and bake carrots in the oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork. When done, remove from oven and let cool.
  • Bring a small pan to medium heat with a little bit of a neutral vegetable oil. Add in the minced garlic, dried parsley, and fresh rosemary, and sauté for about 1 minute. Make sure the garlic doesn't brown!
  • Then, add the carrots, garlic and herbs, and all other ingredients into a food processor, and process on high until the hummus reaches your desired consistency. Taste, and adjust seasonings if necessary.
  • Garnish hummus with pomegranate seeds and curly parsley.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

Just to avoid any confusion - I took a photo with the garlic whole in the food processor, but it will be minced and sautéed in the recipe!
