Recipe Directions

1. In a food processor, combine all the hummus ingredients except the sun-dried tomatoes and spinach.

2. Divide hummus into three portions, leaving one of the portions in the food processor.

3. Put sun-dried tomatoes in the food processor with the hummus. Blend until creamy and slightly chunky. Remove sun-dried tomato hummus. Set aside.

4. Rinse processor and add spinach with the second portion of hummus. Combine thoroughly.

5. Sprouting is super easy. Place garbanzo beans in a glass jar or bowl and cover it with water. Let it soak in the refrigerator overnight. 

6. Drain beans then fill with water and drain again. Set the jar at a 45º angle with good air flow.

7. Continue to rinse and drain for a day or two until little white tails sprout from the bean.

Okay, first of all thank you RCBAlive for bringing this up, you had a very good point about the sprouting and I wanted to get it right, so thank you again. I think it is clear now.

Ok...sprouting. Does sprouting have to occur in a jar...what about a glass bowl. I am soaking chick peas in a glass bowl...cover with cheese cloth. Ok I scrolled up and answered my own question. You are an angel.

Raw cheese and flax crackers! I must have been smoking parsley when I typed this recipe. Yes parsley or even cilantro would be great. Thanks again for looking after me, RCBAlive!

Okay... i just made nearly this exact thing... but without spinach and it was sooooo good... I used to make home made non-raw hummus and I was always disapointed with it... so before I made this one I was already prepared for defeat... but its closer the taste of store bought hummus than I have ever before... yum yum yum... I was so excited about it I just left life a 5 min message on my sisters phone telling her how tasty it was

You're very welcome. Two cups before sprouting. I start with two cups of the chickpeas, then sprout them. Do you think it should read two cups sprouted chickpeas or two cups chickpeas, sprouted? I think I worded it correctly but any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks.

That's a great question! You use the whole bean. And the tail doesn't have to be long. As soon as I see the white tail popping out, I use them.

This was the easiest explanation on sprouting I have seen. I have one question, sorry if it’s kind of a dumb one but I really want to get into sprouting. When you see the white tails is that the only part that you eat or do you eat the whole thing.

Thank you
