Need a 5 minute healthy snack that makes fresh veggies tastier and more filling? This Avocado White Bean Hummus is it! It is super quick, goes great with fresh veggies or in sandwiches/wraps, and it is full of protein and healthy fats to make your snack more satisfying and last longer.
This hummus is super quick and can be made with just 5 ingredients that are often on hand. Best of all it will last for a few days in the fridge so make a big batch and keep it on hand for after work/school snacks, or as a great on-the-go snack.
You can make this hummus with any blender (or food processor probably, although I haven’t tried that myself). However a high powered blender like a Vitamix work much better and will give you an awesome creamy consistency. I never thought I would be ok with spending so much money on a blender, but it has been totally worth it! I use it almost everyday, and I am much more able to get the results desired with it. The Vitamix can blend things a regular blender cannot and get an amazing texture too. You can save a lot of money with a like new one that is guaranteed for 5 years by buying a refurbished one.
