Thai Coconut Curry Hummus
Shelby sent me a text picture of a tub of Thai Coconut Curry Hummus. Oh YES!! How brilliant! Hummus is the perfect vehicle for flavor creativity. I was in the kitchen the next day coming up with my own version. After the rave reviews it received from my taste testers (in this case my work family) I decided to share it with you.
I incorporated the coconut flavor in layers. To the garbanzo beans I added coconut milk, shredded coconut, tahini, sriracha, garlic, shallot, lime, and coconut oil.
