Edamame Hummus with a Kick

by jennieandkim on May 12, 2010

1 c frozen shelled edamame
1 clove garlic
1/4 tsp cumin
juice of half a lemon
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/4 tsp salt
dash of pepper
1/4 c olive oil

Prepare edamame per package directions. Drain and run under cold water. Once cooled, add to remaining ingredients. Blend all in a food processor until smooth. Add olive oil to achieve desired consistency.

This is awesome! Not only is it healthy, but it is packed full of protein! Use it as a dip for pita chips, pretzels & veggies OR as a spread on sandwiches! It is pretty spicy so cut back on some of the ingredients to suit your taste!
