Hummus is such a delicious snack with seeded, wholegrain crackers or veggies sticks – think carrots, capsicum, cucumber and peeled broccoli stems are great too! What’s great is that it’s healthy too. And naturally dairy free, unlike many of the dips you buy in the shops.
You can use any beans you like, but also chickpeas. This recipe uses white beans – cannellini or butter – but any bean will do.
There’s no citrus, just apple cider vinegar, so this recipe is fine for citric acid intolerances. If you’d like low salicylates, use a different oil, such as rice bran, and leave out the cumin.
Also really tasty with fresh crusty bread – this gluten free bread is soft and has a lovely crust – and some coriander pesto, which is great for detoxing heavy metals from your system.

1 tbsp apple cider vinegar,
