We absolutely love this sun-dried tomato and raw red bell pepper hummus that is made without chickpeas. Not only is it full of flavor, but it is also contains with nutrients, alkaline, and incredibly for your digestive system. You will need a high-speed blender or food processor (we think this is the better option) to create a smooth consistency with this raw hummus. If you do not have a great blender, you can still make this recipe, but you may end up with a more rustic consistency. That flavor will still be fantastic, though.

The combination of red bell pepper and sun-dried tomatoes makes this dip. You get a savory sweet combination that has just the right amount of tang. Those two ingredients pair beautifully with the zucchini and spices. To keep this raw hummus a reddish hue, make sure to peel the zucchini, or else the green peel may turn this red hummus slightly brown. To be clear, hummus made without chickpeas still tastes like traditional hummus. The lemon, tahini, and spices give this recipe that distinct hummus flavor you know and love.

The zucchini is the ingredient that gives the raw hummus the body and thickness you want from a dip like this. Even though it is made with vegetables, we encourage you to eat it with raw vegetables sticks, such as celery, carrots, or bell peppers. You can also spread it on nori rolls or in raw collard wraps. We have many recipes for both of those meals in our recipe section. Lastly, the hummus is a little thin when you blend it, but chill it in the fridge for a couple hours and it will thicken up.

Let us get one thing clear before we get into this recipe: there are no chickpeas in this hummus. We’ll go so far as to say that you won’t believe that it is made without chickpeas. Garbanzo beans, or chickpeas, can be very difficult to digest in their raw form, unless they are sprouted before you eat them. For this reason, we omitted them from this hummus and focused on using zucchini, raw sunflower seeds, lemon, and several other ingredients. It really does look and taste like hummus, though, especially after you garnish it with some optional herbs, spices, and a drizzle of olive oil.

Zucchini exhibits a diverse nutritional profile and is particularly rich in antioxidants, more specifically carotenoids. Zucchini offers lutein, zeaxanthin, and beta-carotene, all of which may benefit your eyes, skin, and heart. These carotenoids may even offer some protection against certain types of cancer, such as prostate cancer. According to research, the skin of zucchini contains the highest levels of antioxidants, with yellow squash offering slightly higher levels than green varieties.

Because zucchini contains both soluble and insoluble fiber, it may promote healthy digestion in several ways. Soluble fiber feeds the healthy bacteria that live in the gut, which helps them produce short-chain fatty acids that nourish gut cells. Short-chain fatty acids may also lower inflammatory markers and reduce symptoms of certain gut disorders. Insoluble fiber adds bulk to stool and helps food move through the digestive tract. If all of that is not reason enough to eat this zucchini hummus, we don’t know what is! It is purely delicious and a great raw dip to have in your cleansing recipe arsenal.

For many Americans, the predominant feasting days are Thanksgiving, Christmas, Memorial Day, July 4th, and Super Bowl Sunday. The Super Bowl, also known as the big game, is not just an ordinary watch party to cheer on football teams. It is a day to enjoy everyone’s favorite snacks, comfort foods, and drinks. The spread is almost more important than the game, commercials, and halftime show. 

Super Bowl Statistics

During Super Bowl Sunday, an estimated 48 million Americans order take out. Nearly 60% of those take out orders are pizza, which is partially attributed to all the advertisements. Plus, pizza is an easy, affordable entree that can feed a lot of people. In addition to pizza, chicken wings and chips and dips are the most popularly ordered foods. Did you know that an estimated 1.25 billion chicken wings are eaten during Super Bowl Weekend? That equates to nearly 162.5 million pounds of chicken, proving that this weekend is responsible for 7% of chicken sales for the year. 

Food and beverages account for the majority of spending for at home celebrations for the big game. The latest analytics for the 2026 game suggest that 213.1 million U.S. adults plan to watch the game. This year, about 121.1 million people plan to throw or attend a party, while another 18.2 million plan to watch at a bar or restaurant. Total spending on food, drinks, apparel, and decorations for the 2026 game is expected to reach a record $20.2 billion, which equates to about $94.77 per person.

If you want to take a different approach to your game day spread, we’ve got some great recipes for you. The following appetizers and dips may not even make it past the first half! That’s how good they are! Let us know which ones you end up making on game day in the comments.

This homemade raw vegan sunflower seed cheese is exactly what happens when you decide let ingredients shine. It’s the simplicity that allows this dish to show off a little. “Cheese” made from humble sunflower seeds? You got that right, but we transformed them into something unexpectedly luxurious, creamy, tangy, and deeply satisfying. No dairy, no cooking, and no drama necessary. What you’re left with is a smooth, spoonable masterpiece that somehow tastes like it took way more effort than you put into it.

As a dip, this is the life of the party, even if it is just a party of one. It’s as if the vegetables you choose to dip in the sunflower seed cheese suddenly try harder. Even a plain slice of cucumber becomes a vehicle for greatness. As a spread, this “cheese” glides effortlessly onto wraps, or even toast or sandwiches that you make post-cleanse. It adds a beautiful richness without being too heavy. It’s bold enough to stand on its own, yet polite enough to play a supporting role that highlights other ingredients.

We don’t ever want to say that a recipe is perfect, but this one is in that quiet, confident way. This sunflower seed cheese proves that raw vegan food can be both wholesome and indulgent, offering robust nutrition and incredible depth of flavor. It doesn’t try to imitate anything; rather, it just plain delicious. Keep it fresh in your fridge for up to a couple days and trust us when we tell you that you’ll find excuses to eat it, but then quickly realize you didn’t need excuses at all.

This vibrant vegan pesto made with broccoli stems offers a refreshing twist on an old classic sauce (pesto) while reducing kitchen waste. We say this because people typically discard broccoli stems and only focus on using the florets. The stems offer valuable nutrients and taste incredible, whether you blend them into a pesto, shred them for slaws, or cook them in stir-fries. This recipes calls for blending broccoli stems with basil, garlic, lemon, pine nuts, nutritional yeast, and a handful of seasonings to create a naturally creamy pesto that balances earthiness with subtle sweetness. This smooth, green pesto adheres beautifully to zoodles, spreads easily on sandwiches, or works as a tasty dip for fresh vegetables.

Using broccoli stems in pesto also invites a pleasant yet mild flavor that doesn’t overpower the aromatic basil. They have a firm yet tender texture once you peel them, and they give the sauce body without the need for cheese. That makes this recipe an easy vegan, and even raw vegan, staple for future cooking. Due to the relatively light flavor of the stems, they pair especially well with citrusy ingredients, allowing the fresh lemon juice to brighten the pesto without creating a bitter flavor.

Broccoli stems themselves are generally under-appreciated in most kitchens. They are rich in fiber, which supports digestion and helps you feel fuller for longer, and they also contain many of the same nutrients found in the florets, such as vitamin C, vitamin K, and potassium. Because people typically discard the stems, using them helps reduce food waste while simultaneously stretching your grocery budget. Maybe now that you have this recipe, you can figure out more ways to incorporate them into other recipes you make in the future.

When you think of chocolate spread, you probably think of Nutella. It’s a classic spread that not only contains hazelnuts, but also milk, soy, vegetable fats, flavorings, and sugar…lots of sugar. A one-tablespoon serving of Nutella has the following stats:

• Calories: 80 calories
• Fats: 4.6 grams (g)
• Carbohydrates: 8.6 g
• Sugar: 8.4 g
• Protein: 0.9 g

If it is truly a hazelnut spread, why is sugar the first ingredient? That is never a good sign for your health. Fortunately, this recipe is the perfect dip, spread, or breakfast topping. You can even eat it by the spoonful! Just be mindful of how much you eat. because cashews also contain a lot of calories. It does taste good on just about anything and satisfies your chocolate cravings in a healthier way than Nutella does.

Besides the ingredients, the other primary difference between this recipe and a store bought chocolate spread is that is not shelf-stable. This recipe only lasts for about a week, but you have to store it properly in order for this to happen. You will need raw cashews, raw cacao powder, agave nectar, vanilla extract, coconut oil, and sea salt. It’s possible that the chocolate cashew butter will separate slightly, due to the fact that it contains agave nectar and coconut oil. Just give it a good mix every time you eat it and you’ll be fine!

One of the best things about summer celebrations is the food. People get to show off their culinary skills, usually in the form of dips, snacks, and appetizers. Finger food is exactly what you want at a potluck, picnic, barbecue,  or cookout. Although you can use slow cookers, Instant Pots, or grills to make main dishes, they don’t have anything on snacks and apps! That’s why this article is all about dippin’ and chippin’.

The truth is that people will eat almost any dip at a party or gathering, so long as it is tasty. We don’t mess around with flavor here at Dherbs! Every dish you make needs to impress your taste buds, but that doesn’t mean each dip requires a long list of ingredients. As with most recipes, the quality of the ingredients is what makes the dish. If you make vegan bruschetta, for example, opt for heirloom tomatoes in place of Roma tomatoes. Quality ingredients elevate an average dish to something spectacular!

Why make your own dips when there are so many dip options in grocery stores? This is a valid question, and the simplest answer is that almost every store bought dip contains processed ingredients and preservatives. Do you want to worry about high sodium levels when you are dipping on Labor Day? We didn’t think so. With the following dips, you can both enjoy their flavors and feel good about eating them.

Fresh peaches, sweetener, some lemon juice, and a jar…that’s all you need for this beautiful summer creation. This peach jam contains absolutely no preservatives or other chemical ingredients that you can’t pronounce, all of which are in store bought jams. You can gather as many peaches as you can and make a large batch, dividing it into smaller jars that you freeze and later defrost to enjoy throughout the year. Peaches don’t just have to be a summertime fruit to enjoy now that you have this recipe!

Maybe you are fortunate to have a peach tree in your yard. Perhaps you have a connection with a local farmer who has a plethora of peaches that he can’t get rid of fast enough. Whatever your peach source, guard it with your life! Obviously, you can enjoy peaches raw, but they can start to turn on you quickly. To prevent the fruit from going bad, you can make this simple peach jam. Peaches contain a good amount of sweetness, so you don’t need to add too much agave, but you can always adjust the amount based on the sweetness level of the jam.

The reason that you add lemons to the jam is because they contain natural pectin. This will help set the peach jam into the thick consistency that you know and love. Squeeze some fresh lemon juice and consider adding a little lemon zest for added flavor. For the peaches, just wash them, remove the pit, and chop them into smaller pieces. If your peaches do not have any bruises, feel free to leave the peel on. That said, you can always peel your peaches prior to making this jam. We hope you love it as much as we do!

Get ready to enjoy a refreshing peach salsa that as visibly stunning as it is flavorful. It’s a unique take on the classic pico de gallo, combining the natural sweetness of ripe peaches with classic zesty, tangy, spicy salsa ingredients. Made with freshly diced peaches, this salsa incorporates red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, tomato, and lime juice, creating a perfectly balanced blend of sweetness, heat, and acidity. The result is a bright and inviting dip that enhances a variety of dishes.

The texture of this peach salsa is lively and appealing, offering juicy, tender peach cubes that provide a punch of natural sweetness with every bite. The addition of crunchy elements like diced red onion and crisp cilantro adds contrast, while the jalapeño brings a slight kick that elevates the overall flavor profile. Not a huge fan of spice? You can omit the jalapeño, or tame the spice by removing the seeds before dicing it up. Lime juice not only adds acidity, but also helps to bring out the freshness of the ingredients, making the salsa especially vibrant and lively. It also works to reduce that allium flavor in the onion.

This salsa is perfect for summertime gatherings or any occasion that calls for a light, refreshing appetizer. Not only is it incredibly versatile, but it is also easy to prepare. The sweet and spicy notes make it a delightful accompaniment for those seeking a fresh, fruity twist. Don’t be afraid to just dive in and treat it as the delicious dip it is!
