Sesame-Free Eggplant Hummus
This delicious hummus makes use of eggplant and white beans in place of the traditional chickpeas and sesame. That means allergy-friendly for those avoiding sesame, as well as those reactive to chickpeas.
The eggplant hummus’s taste, helped along by the roasted garlic, is simply superb.
