Roasted Cauliflower Hummus

I eat hummus with fresh vegetables just about every day.  To keep life interesting, I like experimenting with different types of hummus and I prefer to make it myself when I have time so I can control the ingredients.  This low carb hummus tastes just like a basic hummus without all the calories.  I may even add some Everything Bagel Seasoning just to punch up the flavor.

Ingredients:

5 cups cauliflower florets

3 tablespoons tahini

2 tablespoons lemon juice; zest of 1 lemon

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

3 tablespoons warm water

1 garlic clove

½ teaspoon cumin or 1 teaspoon Everything Bagel Seasoning Blend

Olive oil spray

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
2. Lay cauliflower on baking sheet.  Spray with olive oil spray. Roast 20 minutes.
3. Add tahini, lemon juice and zest, olive oil, water, garlic, and seasoning to food processor. Pulse to mix.
4. Add cauliflower after it is done roasting. Pulse and scrape down the sides.
5. Add more water or olive oil if needed to reach desired consistency.
6. Enjoy with fresh vegetables, on a wrap, or by the spoonful.
