Sweet potato hummus

Sweet potato hummus a delicious variant of the hummus made from only chickpeas, which I also love. A tasty fresh vegetable dipping or as a spread.

Sweet potatoes, a few years ago they were not as well-known as they are now. So that has clearly changed. And in addition to being very versatile, they are also healthy.

The sweet potato is a vegetable with beta carotene in addition to vitamins C and B. That gives that beautiful orange color. But it also protects the skin against UV radiation. And sweet potatoes contain a relatively large amount of fiber.

Because the sugars in a sweet potato are slowly digesting, you do not get any sugar peaks and your blood sugar level remains virtually the same.

Sweet potato as a

replacement

You can use sweet potato as a vegetable or as a carbohydrate replacement, as in this sweet potato chicken in coconut sauce, but also cold as a dipper. And you can use it in desserts, but more about that in another blog. Today we start with the recipe for sweet potato hummus.

 

It's a good taste!
