Don’t worry about the chickpeas because you don’t need them for this cleanse-approved hummus recipe. The beautiful color comes from the red bell pepper and sun-dried tomatoes, which add a beautiful tanginess to the dip. The zucchini and tahini make this deep creamy in a somewhat rustic way.
The only thing that you need is a great blender or a food processor. Sorry, folks, but the run-of-the-mill blender won’t cut it for this recipe. You need that high-powered engine!
