Rosemary Pumpkin Hummus

Okay this recipe creation is by far one of my favorites!!  A perfect snack or a wonderful baby food puree!  It does not disappoint I promise.  Bebe B loved it!  It was great with the pita chips or 7 grain pretzels we had on hand.

Rosemary Pumpkin Hummus - 10 Months+

Ingredients:

1 15 oz. can organic white beans (drained and rinsed in cool water, rinsing helps reduce the gassiness of the beans)

1/2 cup organic pumpkin puree (both canned or homemade will work)

1 tbsp fresh organic rosemary (finely chopped)

1 tsp organic curry spice

1/4 cup olive oil

1 large clove garlic, chopped or minced

a few squirts lemon juice

a pinch of salt (to taste)

In a small saucepan heat the curry spice and the oil on medium low heat for about 5-10 minutes stirring frequently.  It is important to cook curry spices before adding them in recipes so as not to cause stomach issues/ aches (I learned this tip from my hubby who grew up cooking curry).  Combine the rest of the ingredients in a food processor and puree.  Stream in the spiced oil till a creamy consistency is reached and the hummus is well mixed.  This recipe will keep in the refrigerator for 3 days (we gobbled it all up in a day) and for 3 month in the freezer!

Enjoy!
