Butternut Squash Hummus

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butternut squash peeled and cubed
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 15oz can chickpeas Drained and rinsed. Look for cans with BPA free linings, I like Eden Organic brand
  • 1/3 cup tahini
  • 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp pink Himalayan salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

  2. Place butternut squash in an oven-safe roasting dish and lightly coat with olive oil and a pinch of pink Himalayan salt.

  3. Place the butternut squash into the oven on the center rack and roast for about 20 minutes, until it is tender all the way through.

  4. Place the butternut squash into your Sage Baby Puree & Blend food processor along with the rest of the ingredients and pulse until smooth. Add a little water while blending, if necessary, to achieve a smoother consistency.

  5. Serve or store.
