Low fat hummus recipe

Don't add oil to hummus, and you will get a low fat hummus recipe. As low as it gets because tahini is still in!
I now know the truth: this lentil hummus is certainly superior in taste to any chick pea hummus I ever made. Lentils make it smooth so oil is not required. It tastes fantastic, and it is very healthy whole food meal. High in protein, smooth and silky, this hummus rocked my world. There is no cumin in it, I forgot to use it, and later found that without cumin the taste was only better :)

Guilt-free low fat lentil hummus recipe

I use Vitamix blender, and if you don't, the result may be not as smooth. Not to worry, all the goodless is still there.
This lentil hummus recipe includes baked squash. I bake squash and small pumpkin without even cutting them and store then for use during a week.
