This hummus is 100% in alignment with aggressive insulin-sensitizing, glucose-optimizing goals. No compromises.

🧾 Ingredients:

• 1½ cups cooked organic chickpeas (or BPA-free canned, rinsed & drained)
• ¼ cup fresh lemon juice (about 1 large lemon)
• ¼ cup organic tahini (just sesame seeds, no added oils)
• 1 small clove garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 2 tablespoons cold filtered water (adjust for texture)
• ½ teaspoon Himalayan pink salt
• ¼ teaspoon cumin (optional, for depth)
• Pinch of smoked paprika or cayenne (optional, for kick)

Optional add-ins for even more metabolic firepower:

• Handful of fresh parsley or cilantro
• 1 tablespoon ground flax or chia (extra fiber & omega-3s)
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (helps post-meal glucose)

🥣 Directions:

1. Blend tahini + lemon juice first for 1 full minute in a food processor – this gives that ultra-creamy texture.
2. Add garlic, olive oil, salt, cumin (if using), and blend until smooth.
3. Add chickpeas and blend again until thick and creamy. Add water slowly to thin if needed.
4. Taste, adjust seasoning, and blend in any optional ingredients.
5. Serve with raw veggies, flax crackers, or jicama and cucumber slices.
