Cauliflower Hummus – Yummy Paleo Snack

Before I was a paleo chick, one of my favorite healthy snacks was hummus and veggies.  Unfortunately, traditional hummus is made from chickpeas, and chickpeas are legumes – which are a no-go in the paleo world.   After doing a little research, I learned that you could make hummus from – cauliflower!  And PS – it tastes so much like the chickpea version you will totally fool your friends!

I played around in the kitchen until I created a recipe that I love!

It’s easy to get creative with this recipe – serve it as a dip – or use it as a spread!  It’s really delicious and a great one to take to a party!

I shared this recipe a few months ago over at Honey We’re Healthy.  While it’s not a paleo blog it’s definitely one of my favorite healthy living blogs!  Reading keeps me inspired to keep up with my regular workouts.  It’s so easy for me to get into a rut and not feel motivated to exercise but Honey We’re Healthy gets me energized to stay committed.  And there are lots of great recipes over there too – many that are easy to tweek for a paleo lifestyle.   I’m planning to make these yummy kale chips tonight!

Head over to say hello and get inspired to live healthy!

  • I am TOTALLY new to this Paleo way and would like to know why traditional hummus is a no-no? Love following you on IG and here…xo

  • You can totally use tahini. I prefer the almond butter for it's sweet taste paired with the cauli and red pepper. I also like the texture you get using almond butter over tahini – but tahini would totally work. Just depends on your own taste/texutre preferences.

  • I made this the other night…almost finished the whole thing in one sitting (for dinner, of course)!
    It was great, yum yum, just like regular hummus but way less calories and many awesome nutrients from cauliflower. Next time less I'm going to try 2T oil and 1T ground flax seed and see how that works 🙂
    But it was amazing, thank you for this awesome alternative to hummus!!!

  • This is YUMMY!!!! I cut back on the red pepper quite a bit and added 1 T lemon juice and 3/4 t salt. Thank you for this recipe. It would be great with more red pepper but not for everyone! 😉
