Pizza Hummus--dairy and sesame free
Description
This Pizza Hummus recipe uses garbanzo beans as its base, combined with tomato paste to give a tangy, rich undertone typical of pizza sauce. Dried basil, oregano, crushed red pepper, and garlic introduce classic Italian seasoning notes, while nutritional yeast offers a cheese-like flavor without dairy. Olive oil smooths the texture and adds richness. The ingredients are blended to a smooth or chunky consistency depending on preference.
The resulting hummus delivers familiar pizza flavors in a spreadable form, suitable for those avoiding dairy and sesame. Its texture can complement pita bread, vegetable sticks, or be used as a sandwich spread.
This hummus stores well in the refrigerator and can be served chilled or at room temperature. Nutritional yeast included adds B-vitamins and protein, but individuals with specific sensitivities should note its presence.
