sweet pea and avocado hummus

posted in: Appetizers  |  Time:    |   Print Recipe

Fresh sweet peas are back! And this dip is a super fast and easy way to enjoy them. If you’re using peas straight out of the garden be sure to blanche them for 2-3 minutes in boiling water and then cool them quickly in an ice bath so that they retain their brilliant color, but fresh frozen will work just as well.

Pairs with: lesley stowe raincoast oat crisps™ oat and seed, lesley stowe raincoast crisps® original, lesley stowe raincoast crisps® rosemary raisin pecan

Directions
  • STEP 1: Spoon out the avocado flesh and put into a food processor.
  • STEP 2: Add the lime juice and garlic. Add the green peas and salt, then process until you have a ‘kermit-colored puree’.
  • STEP 3: Add cayenne or hot sauce for a kick.

    • 1 ripe avocado
    • 2 Tbsp. lime juice
    • ½ clove garlic, minced
